Iran used [made by] Chinese spy satellite to target US military bases in Middle East – report
|
[IsraelTimes] IRGC bought satellite in late 2024 after it was launched into space, and directed it to monitor bases before and after missile and drone strikes on them, Financial Times says
Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both. They hate Jews Zionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol...
used a Chinese spy satellite it secretly bought in 2024 to target US bases in the current war, the Financial Times reported Wednesday.
The TEE-01B satellite, built and launched by Chinese company Earth Eye Co, was acquired by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps’ Aerospace Force in late 2024 after it was launched into space from China, the report said, citing leaked Iranian military documents.
The Iranian military commanders directed the satellite to monitor major US military sites, the newspaper said, citing time-stamped coordinate lists, satellite imagery and orbital analysis. The images were taken in March before and after drone and missile strikes on those locations, FT said.
As part of the deal, the IRGC received access to commercial ground stations operated by Emposat, a Beijing-based provider of satellite control and data services provider with a network extending across Asia, Latin America and other regions, according to the report.
The satellite captured images of Prince Sultan Air Base in Saudi Arabia
 ...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula, largely made up of sand and oil rigs. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual haj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. Formerly dictatorial and steeped in Olde Tyme Religion, deferring to Salafist holy men on all issues, it has now done a 180 and is making a serious effort to modernize, so as not to be left in the sand by its Gulf Arab neighbors. The holy men have been shoved to the background and the nation is now still dictatorial but somewhat rational. That doesn't make them trustworthy, but it's a start...
on March 13, 14 and 15, FT said.
On March 14, US President Donald Trump
...Never got invited to a P.Diddy party...
confirmed US planes at the base had been hit.
According to the report, the satellite also monitored Muwaffaq Salti Air Base in Jordan and locations close to the US Fifth Fleet naval base in Manama, Bahrain, and Erbil airport, Iraq, around the time of IRGC-claimed attacks on facilities in those areas.
Rooters could not independently verify the report. The White House, CIA, Pentagon, China’s foreign affairs ministry and defense ministry, Earth Eye Co and Emposat did not immediately respond to requests by Rooters for comment.
Previous reports have said Iran received Russian intelligence satellite imagery of both US and Israeli targets following the start of the US-Israeli bombing campaign in Iran on February 28.
The campaign, which came to a halt last Wednesday after a two-week ceasefire was announced, sought to destabilize Iran’s regime and destroy its ballistic missile and nuclear programs.
Iran responded with missile and dronezaps across the region and by effectively blockading the Strait of Hormuz. Last week, Russia and China vetoed a United Nations
...a formerly good idea gone bad...
Security Council aimed at reopening the vital waterway.
