@covert_shores 's new video on Iranian mines. He mentions an older video about the challenges of keeping the strait of Hormuz open (from seven months ago, circa the strikes on nuclear facilities and the ensuing exchange of long range fires) so I'll include it here.

Looks like an ammunition storage facility,certainly not a "missile base".

 

[lancer21]

how about the manned aircraft losses on the Iranian side?
there's the Yak-130 that was shot down by an F-35
and a number that were destroyed on the ground, including F-14s, C-130s,etc

For what is worth wiki has a useful base compilation of losses to both sides to date, though probably not complete and maybe not necessarily 100% accurate.

Republicans are proposing cutting federal healthcare spending in order to free up funds for the attacks on Iran

GOP weighs health care cuts to pay for Iran war

Republicans are considering reductions in federal health spending to help pay for a budget bill containing as much as $200 billion to fund the Iran war and immigration enforcement. New efforts to rein in health programs are sure to be controversial and open the GOP up to election-year attacks...
