Satellite images released by Maxar show damage to the Revolutionary Guards border terminal in Syria • Photos indicate damage to arms delivery
The site in Syria before the American attack
Satellite images of the satellite and technology company Maxar today (Saturday) revealed the damage of the American attack on the Syrian-Iraqi border, which resulted in the death of at least one pro-Iranian militiaman and injured another 22.
The photos show that the attack took place in a parking lot next to the border terminal set up by members of the Revolutionary Guards.
The purpose of the terminal is to transfer personnel, ammunition and equipment for the pro-Iranian militias in Syria and Quds Force personnel of the Revolutionary Guards.
Serious damage appears to have been caused to several transportable structures placed in the parking lot and some vehicles, apparently trucks, were destroyed in the attack.
The footage confirms the claims of the Center for Human Rights in Syria, an organization affiliated with the opposition and based in London, according to which the American attack focused on the shipment of large arms that came from the Iraqi border into Syrian territory.
Journalists affiliated with Shiite militias in Iraq published photos showing the site that was attacked, showing damage to buildings but no trace of the vehicles destroyed.
The pro-Iranian militia Hezbollah Brigades in Iraq announced that one of its men had been killed in the attack.
The attack, ordered by President Biden, came in response to a series of missile strikes on U.S. targets across Iraq, in which a U.S. military contractor was killed and several other U.S. soldiers were wounded.
