Where are the images from all these satellite launches to display the post strike damage on Israeli military bases? If we get to see only Israeli news snaps of damage to Iranian military bases, how come Iran doesn’t publish counter photos?

Iran's highest resolution so far is 1 m2 (Khayyam Sat). That's not decent enough for damage analysis.

not all satellites are military imagery satellites
only one of the last two satellites is an imaging satellite and it has a 3.5m resolution because it is designed for agriculture not military purposes (private sector satellite)
Iran's only drone with military imaging utility is the Russian built and launched Khayyam with c. 1m resolution. there are 3 more Khayyam satellites scheduled to be built and launched in the coming years

@FreePalestine
as per your post, how long Japan tried the same thing which Iran has done in short time? ...... American help and others also do count when we compare Japan and Iran in this section......
here, how you people see post#309? nearly half of the countries of world couldn't score even "Satellite Operate" which Bangladesh could score with one 'tick' in the same table.....
List of government space agencies - Wikipedia

in the above list, the Pakistan could score 2 'ticks' with Operate Satellite and Build Satellite also....

Iran sends 2 satellites to Russia for rocket launch, says they’re for civilian purposes
Satellites could be for agriculture, environmental monitoring, disaster management and communications, but US has warned in past they could be used to identify targets in Israel
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates – Iran has sent two locally made satellites to Russia to be put into orbit by a Russian space vehicle, the semi-official news agency Tasnim reported on Saturday, in the latest space cooperation between the two US-sanctioned countries.The development of Kowsar, a high-resolution imaging satellite, and Hodhod, a small communications satellite, is the first substantial effort by Iran’s private space sector, the report said.
Russia sent Iranian satellites into orbit in February and in 2022, when US officials voiced concern over space cooperation between Russia and Iran, fearing the satellite would not only help Russia in Ukraine but also help Iran monitor potential targets in Israel and the wider Middle East.
Kowsar could be used in agriculture, natural resource management, environmental monitoring, and disaster management, Tasnim said. Hodhod is designed for satellite-based communications and could be used in remote areas with little access to terrestrial networks.
In September, Iran carried out its second satellite launch this year using a rocket built by its Revolutionary Guards. The launch came as the United States and European countries accused Tehran of transferring ballistic missiles to Russia that could be used in its war with Ukraine. Iran has denied this.
In January, Iran said it simultaneously launched three satellites into orbit, nearly a week after the launch of a research satellite by its Revolutionary Guards.

Western governments including the United States have repeatedly warned Iran against such launches, saying the same technology can be used for ballistic missiles, including ones designed to deliver a nuclear warhead.
Iran has countered that it is not seeking nuclear weapons and that its satellite and rocket launches are for civil or defense purposes only.

Does India have spy satellites like Iran? Could you educate us?Iran sends 2 satellites to Russia for rocket launch, says they’re for civilian purposes

India's space program is very advanced and far ahead of Iran's
but this isn't the thread for that
