Four facilities used by Iran to manufacture ballistic missile propellant and at least 29 missile launch sites have been damaged by the United States and Israel since the start of the war, according to an analysis of satellite imagery by the Washington Post. The damaged production sites included military complexes at Shahroud and Parchin, where solid missile propellant is produced; Khojjir, which produces both solid and liquid propellant; and Hakimiyeh, which manufactures liquid propellant and missile launchers. Four experts interviewed by the Post assessed that Iran would be unable to produce short- and medium-range ballistic missiles until the facilities are repaired or replaced. Damaged launch sites included the Khorgu missile base on Iran's Gulf coast and the Imam Ali missile base in western Iran. Iran is estimated to possess approximately 30 launch sites in total.
