The Iran war picture blackout

Planet Labs PBC, a major satellite imagery provider, has delayed the publication of its satellite images of the Middle East during the current conflict. As reported by Al Jazeera's Linh Nguyen, this pause raises significant implications. Planet Labs' daily Earth imagery is usually a valuable resource for analysis and understanding of events on the ground. The delay impacts the availability of independent visual information during a time of active warfare. The reasons behind Planet Labs' decision and the specific duration of the delay were not detailed in the provided context.
