US airstrikes leave a mark on Iran’s nuclear sites, Maxar satellite images reveal

New satellite pictures from Maxar Technologies reveal extensive damage at three of Iran’s critical nuclear facilities: Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan. This comes shortly after U.S. B-2 stealth bombers executed strikes as per orders from President Donald Trump.

The images, made public on June 24, offer the most detailed post-strike views available. They illustrate the precision and impact of the U.S. attacks on Iran’s nuclear sites.

At the highly fortified Fordow Fuel Enrichment Facility, which is securely situated deep within a mountain close to Qom, satellite shots display numerous craters on key access roads and directly at the entrances to the tunnel systems.

Several perimeter buildings were destroyed outright, and one crater can be seen blasted into the access road leading to the facility.

These strikes had reportedly targeted the underground centrifuge halls that are central to Iran’s uranium enrichment operations.

IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi confirmed that key buildings and underground systems at all three sites were hit. 

American officials say Iran’s nuclear program has been severely set back.

Trump has claimed a “very successful” mission.

In addition to the nuclear sites hit by the U.S., Maxar’s images also documented separate airstrike damage in the capital city of Tehran.
