26/05/25Interactive Map: Iran’s Strategic Assets
Amid ongoing negotiations between Iran and the United States, we are approaching a critical juncture regarding the future of Iran’s nuclear program—caught between the possibility of a diplomatic resolution and the threat of military action (by Israel and/or the United States).
This interactive map highlights Iran’s key military and nuclear facilities, along with the locations of direct attacks on Iranian territory attributed to Israel in April and October 2024.
Whether the coming months bring renewed diplomatic efforts toward a nuclear agreement or a military escalation with Iran, this regularly updated map provides a valuable resource for understanding Iran’s strategic assets. These assets form a central pillar of Iran’s deterrence posture against its adversaries—chief among them, Israel—especially given the weakening of its regional proxy network—which the Islamic Republic has built over years—due to the ongoing wars in Gaza and Lebanon and the collapse of the Assad regime in Syria.
The map is updated regularly and as accurately as possible, based on open-source intelligence assessments and media reports.
