Satellite images of an aircraft hangar at a key Israeli military air base taken after a massive barrage of Iranian missiles appear to show a large hole in the roof.
Images of the Nevatim air base in southern Israel on Wednesday show the damage to the roof in a row of buildings near the main runway. Large pieces of debris can be seen spread around the building.
It was not clear what caused the damage. Israel’s military did not immediately respond to a request for comment about the satellite images.
Nevatim is home to the Israeli Air Force’s most advanced aircraft, including U.S.-produced F-35 Lightning II stealth fighter jets. It is not clear from the satellite imagery whether any aircraft were in the hangar when it was struck. 
Nevatim also sustained light damage during an Iranian missile and drone attack in April.
Iran’s foreign minister has described the nation’s ballistic missile attack on Israel as self-defense.
Abbas Araghchi made the comments in a television interview on Wednesday in Tehran.
“We sent a message to the American side through the Swiss Embassy suggesting them not to get involved in the story,” Araghchi said. “We will confront and answer any third party that enters any operation against us in support of the Zionist regime and we will have a crushing response.”
He also reiterated that Iran’s response to Israel will be “harsher” if Israel attacks Iran in response.
