Iran has launched its Chamran-1 research satellite using the Ghaem-100 carrier, raising concerns among Western nations that this technology may advance its ballistic missile capabilities.
The US warns that technology for satellite launches can be repurposed for ballistic missiles, especially concerning given Iran's progress in enriching uranium up to weapons-grade levels.
Despite Iran's insistence that its satellite program is purely for research, the international community remains skeptical due to its dual-use nature, linking it to potential threats.
With the capacity to develop intercontinental ballistic missiles, Iran's satellite advancements pose a significant risk as they can also enhance its nuclear delivery systems.
