A military base in western Iran was attacked on Friday by UAVs
Iranian opposition sources report that last Friday, late at night, a massive explosion occurred in the western suburbs of Tehran.
According to the report, the source of the explosion was an attack by UAVs on the strategic military base of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards - "Shaheed Hamat", which is considered one of the most important weapons production centers in Iran.
It was further reported that the target attacked within this base was a research center where they engaged in the design and manufacture of ballistic missiles and short-range missiles.
According to these sources, the attacking UAVs took off from Iran, from a point only ten kilometers from the target of the attack. According to estimates, the UAVs were smuggled in parts into Iran and assembled in its territory.
It was also reported that a ballistic missile engine was recently tested at the base that was attacked.
Sources noted that the Iranian defense minister arrived on Saturday morning to visit the base, under heavy security, in order to closely monitor the damage to the site.

Russia is formulating a decision in the Security Council against Israel following the attack attributed to it at the airport in Damascus.
The attack attributed to Israel last week at the Damascus airport led to its shutdown, and also drew criticism of the move from Russia. The criticism led to a very unusual move - a Russian official move against Israel in the UN Security Council.
A draft resolution drafted by Russia at the UN Security Council states that the attack was carried out in violation of international law, undermines stability and also violates the sovereignty of Syria and "other countries" - a hint of how the alleged attack was carried out. The attack must be held accountable, and because it has fatally damaged the ability to assist Syria humanitarianly.
Senior Israeli officials confirmed that Russia was indeed formulating such an offer, but added that its chances of receiving support were not high. An Israeli source stressed that "Iran continues to use Syrian territory and the airport for arms smuggling."
After the attack, the Russian Foreign Ministry strongly condemned it, saying: "We must reiterate our position that the ongoing Israeli bombing of Syrian territory, which violates basic norms of international law, is completely unacceptable."
