Syrian opposition officers uncovered on Saturday the sites of Iranian missiles caches and factories in the country, saying that the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has moved its leadership base from Damascus to mountainous areas north the capital due to the latest Israeli strikes.
The study was conducted by the National Front for Liberation (NFL), which is now under the command of Fateh Hassoun, and includes a group of 150 dissident officers.
It documented the presence of several Iranian Fateh-110 short-range ballistic missiles, advanced Russian-made Scud missiles, and Dhu al-Fiqar, which can reach a range of 700 kilometers.
The study showed that Toophan-1 anti-tank missiles were stored in the Tayfur airport in the province of Homs, while rocket caches were found in Aleppo’s Al-Safira town, in southern Damascus’ Koussa and in Jab Al-Jarah, east the city of Selmiyah.
Israel considers the Iranian presence in Syria as the biggest threat for Israel and the region.
The Israel Defence Forces have conducted several airstrikes in Syria against Iranian sites, destroying Iranian depots for weapons and ammunition, and killing dozens of Iranian officers.
