A
military installation near the Lebanese-Syrian border is being utilized
to produce precision surface-to-surface missiles, likely with Iranian
backing, according to an intelligence report published on Wednesday by
ImageSat International.
The firm mentioned that neither warheads
nor missile engines are being manufactured at the compound in the
northwestern Syrian city of Safita, which is almost five miles from the
border with Lebanon.
"According to the company, the type of
construction, the location of the compound and evidence of activity at
the site and its environs increase the probability that at issue is a
missile manufacturing plant," reported Haaretz.
"ISI added, however, that there is no way to confirm this assessment due to suspicions that it's an Iranian site."
The firm added that there has been
increased vehicular activity to the compound in recent months, in
addition to a new water tower constructed there.
