The Israeli Defense Forces aircraft attacked the Shahrud Space Center, which is located in the Iranian province of Semnan. This is reported by the American newspaper The New York Times. The publication notes that this happened during the so-called Israeli retaliatory strike against Iran on October 26.
Fabian Hinz, a researcher at the International Institute for Strategic Studies, told the publication.

Fabian Hinz emphasized.
He clarified that during the strike, the central building of the center, which was associated with the production of solid-fuel missiles, was destroyed.
The publication also provides assessments by other experts who agree with Fabian Hinz's conclusions.
– said Joseph Bermudez, senior researcher in image analysis at the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington.
Earlier, the American media spread information according to which Israel, shortly before the strike on Iran on October 26, warned the Islamic Republic through third countries about the impending attack, demanding not to respond to it.
In turn, some Middle Eastern publications reported that Iran also notified Tel Aviv through third countries that its conditions had been accepted.
