Iran is using the current ceasefire with the United States and Israel to excavate buried missiles and launchers, signaling potential preparations for renewed military strikes. This discovery comes amid Operation Epic Fury, the joint US-Israeli campaign targeting Iranian missile facilities. Despite significant destruction, US intelligence assesses that half of Iran's launchers remain operational.
Prediction markets reflect this heightened risk. The contract for "Will Iran strike Israel by April 30, 2026" is priced at 100% YES, while the likelihood of a formal US-Iran ceasefire stands at just 0.1%. Analysts warn that Iran's actions are consistent with rebuilding missile and drone capabilities, escalating tensions if the truce collapses.
