@iwasnevrhere_ This station has nothing to do with "zionists". In 2016, it was sold to European Satellite Company.

[Mike Mostovski @MikeMostovski]

@UbaiAboudi @iwasnevrhere_ @grok Nothing. The station has zero military value despite looking impressive. In 2016, it was sold to European Satellite Company and has been used for transmitting live broadcasts between America and Asia since then. That's why Hezbollah's missile was not intercepted. ))
