Iranian authorities have reportedly discovered a covert drone manufacturing facility in the south of Tehran.
.
This was revealed by Iran’s state broadcaster on Sunday, where officials claimed that a three-story building was being used as a workshop to assemble drones allegedly of Israeli origin.
Police officials indicated that the drone components were smuggled into the country using various undisclosed methods before being put together within the facility. The location, nestled in a densely populated urban district, appeared to have been operating in secrecy, raising concerns about the scale and coordination of foreign intelligence activity within Iranian territory. No official response has yet been issued by Israeli authorities regarding the accusation, though the report adds yet another layer to the complex and escalating series of military and covert exchanges between the two nations.
This revelation surfaces amid a broader context of heightened hostilities, with both Iran and Israel exchanging multiple strikes in recent weeks. While details of these operations often remain shrouded in secrecy, the discovery of what Tehran describes as an Israeli-linked drone workshop within its own capital signals a possible deepening of the shadow war that has long defined relations between the two adversaries. As tensions mount, the international community watches with increasing apprehension, aware that any further escalation could reverberate far beyond the region
