It can be seen that the central building of the space center was destroyed. Vehicles were visible around the building. AP suggests that officials were inspecting the damage caused by the Israeli strike.
Notably, three small buildings south of the main building, as well as a hangar, were damaged.
Despite this, Iran does not acknowledge that Israel was able to attack the Shahroud Space Center.

On the night of October 26, Israel carried out a missile strike on Iran. This was in response to an Iranian attack on October 1.
After this, Axios reported, citing sources, that as a result of the Israeli attack, the production of ballistic missiles in Iran was paralyzed.
