@vantortech Satellite image Oct. 27 (left) shows dark shapes consistent with groups of people. Next day's image, Oct. 28 (right), shows those shapes in the same location, but larger. This is consistent with reports of a mass killing there, per @HRL_YaleSPH.
@vantortech @HRL_YaleSPH Similarly, @HRL_YaleSPH used these satellite images to corroborate a report that the RSF also conducted mass killings at the Saudi Hospital and surrounding areas. Full report: files-profile.medicine.yale.edu/documents/b9c1… x.com/trbrtc/status/…

NEW: On the first day of the war with Iran, the United States used a new ballistic missile. It was untested in combat. Our analysis shows it struck a sports hall, an elementary school, and residential areas — killing at least 21 people, including children. w/ @johnismay Image
Here's a gift link to our full story. We analyzed security camera videos, aftermath photos, satellite images and mapping services. We're citing experts (i.e. @ArmsControlWonk) and referencing other reporting on this (i.e. by @neginbagheri91, @ChrisOsieck, @MerlynThomas, @Shayan86, @jalalisarah, @MerlynThomas, @DropSiteNews): nytimes.com/2026/03/29/wor…
The missile in question is the Precision Strike Missile (PrSM, pronounced like “prism”), a short-range ballistic missile designed to replace Army Tactical Missile System (ATACMS). Lockheed Martin just announced it's expanding the production. lockheedmartin.com/en-us/news/fea…Image

New footage reveals an apparent U.S. or Israeli strike near a boys' school in Abyek, west of Tehran, on Feb. 28. Satellite imagery suggests a comms tower was the intended target, but flying debris killed a child on the playground. Story w/ @Parinlalala nytimes.com/2026/03/09/wor…
The footage originates from multiple security cameras. It shows an ordinary morning; boys playing on the playground. It's just hours after the first joint U.S.-Israeli strikes, so school are in session. Then, an explosion is seen at the top of the screen.
We geolocated the footage to the Imam Reza Elementary School for boys in Abyek, a small city in the Qazvin Province, west of Tehran: 36.045062, 50.542351. The footage from the interior shows the blast damaged the school itself too.

What you're looking at is not a sunrise — it's the Russian LNG tanker ARCTIC METAGAZ (IMO 9243148) struck by a massive explosion in the Mediterranean this morning. Photographed by crew aboard a merchant vessel, via Vanguard Tech. Image
Image
Image
Image
Photos were taken ~04:00 local (03:00 UTC), looking towards Libya. ARCTIC METAGAZ had been running dark (AIS off, see @MarineTraffic screenshot) but had traveled southeast of Malta before the explosion (150NM per Maltese media, h/t @malte_humpert @sanjanamv @DefMon3). Image
At the time of the suspected (naval) drone attack, the ARCTIC METAGAZ was fully loaded near Murmansk with about 4 tanks of LNG, per @Kpler data. That's probably about $50 to $60 million worth in Russian gas. Image

We obtained the first known satellite image of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei's compound in Tehran. There are several destroyed buildings. While the current whereabouts of Iran's supreme leader are unknown, the compound is generally used as his official residence. 🛰️📸: @Airbus Image
*first publicly released satellite image

Either way, it goes to show that triangulating the lines of sight from four geolocated videos lead precisely to a main strike location in Tehran.

Israel has launched a daylight attack on Tehran, just now. Multiple explosions have been reported in Iran's capital. It isn't clear yet what was targeted, so starting a thread with geolocations.
This photo, showing thick smoke plumes, was taken from Hasan Abad Square (میدان حسن‌آباد), looking northwest. Reference photo attached (). @GeoConfirmed: 35.686144, 51.410156. google.com/maps/@35.68614…Image

@GeoConfirmed This video, posted by a semi-official Iranian news agency, shows thick smoke rising near Pasteur St (خیابان پاستور), where key government institutions are located. Point-of-view is southwest. Geolocation in tweet below.

The aftermath of the Jan. 8 fire in the historic bazaar of Rasht, northern Iran, is visible in satellite imagery. The image is accessible via @Soar, a relatively new free platform aggregating satellite data from multiple sources, including @CopernicusEU.
The fire broke out amid nationwide anti-government protests, and Rasht's bazaar was a focal point of unrest, including clashes and strikes by merchants. Iranian authorities blame protesters for setting the fire, eyewitnesses dispute that. factnameh.com/fa/fact-checks…
Reports from activists and social posts suggest ~300 shops were destroyed or heavily damaged. Several 19th century sarays (covered market sections) burned completely. Coordinates: 37.279829, 49.589358. Link to the @Soar platform. And h/t @x4rius. soaratlas.com/satellites?pos…
