Iran SHAKEN:  5.2 Earthquake HITS Near Iran’s Secret Space Centre | Nuclear Test Rumors RISE Again [Video]

Iran SHAKEN: 5.2 Earthquake HITS Near Iran’s Secret Space Centre | Nuclear Test Rumors RISE Again

A magnitude 5.2 earthquake struck northern Iran near the country’s space and missile complex, raising questions about its nuclear ambitions. The quake, recorded at a shallow depth of just 3 km, has fueled speculation of possible underground tests—especially given a similar quake during the Iran–Israel war. Iran sits on the seismically active Alpine-Himalayan belt, averaging over 2,100 quakes annually, but its proximity to sensitive sites is reigniting global concerns. Officials deny any nuclear link, insisting Tehran won’t negotiate under external threats. #Iran #Earthquake #IranQuake #NuclearSpeculation #MissileComplex #Tehran #SeismicActivity #IranIsraelTensions #MiddleEast #BreakingNews #IranNuclearProgram #Geopolitics #IranSpaceCenter #EarthquakeAlert #IranCrisis #IranMissileProgram #IranTensions #QuakeNews #IranNuclearDeal #WorldNews #IranMissileComplex #IranSeismicZone #NuclearDoubts #TehranNews #IranBreaking #IranNuclearSpeculation #EarthquakeUpdates #IranUnderWatch #IranSpeculation #IranConflict #IranNuclearAmbitions ~HT.410~GR.122~
