1 | About 9 hours ago, a Chinese commercial satellite imagery provider, MizarVision published a fairly clear image of the PAF Nur Khan air base after strike showing minor damages without clear evidence of airframe loss.
From the image, there seems to be 2 locations showing different level of damages.
From the image, there seems to be 2 locations showing different level of damages.
2 | The first location is a small courtyard near the apron where PAF's transportation aircraft are parked.
There are visible signs of burning and destruction of vehicles, possibly fuel trucks, which corroborates with the intense fire we saw during the night of the attack.

3 | The second location is the roof of a warehouse. It is less whether this is indeed damages done to the roof or just shadow of piled construction materials.
The construction materials are visible in the image taken on Dec. 12th, 2024. There could be some minor fire damage to the roof but it would be inconsequential.

4 | Here is the full image without my annotations.
Base infrastructure seems largely unharmed. We can see 2 IL-78/76 aircraft left on the apron. These aircraft show signs of overhaul or maintenance.
The apron seems to be much emptier compared to Dec. 2024, indicating possible evacuation effort before the Indian strike.
