New satellite imagery shows ongoing activity at Iran's Fordow nuclear complex after US airstrikes

Recent satellite images have disclosed continuous operations and new signs of notable damage to tunnels and access roads at Iran’s subterranean Fordow uranium enrichment facility, resulting from last week’s air raids.

The facility was targeted by Israeli forces on June 23, one day after the U.S. carried out strikes using bunker-buster bombs.

Fresh high-definition satellite images, procured by Maxar Technologies, depict an excavator and multiple personnel stationed right next to the northern shaft on the ridge over the underground site.

Additionally, a crane seems to be functioning at the shaft’s entrance, with several more vehicles noticed below the ridge, parked along the access route constructed to reach the site.

On the following day, Israel confirmed it had conducted a second strike on Fordow, specifically targeting the roads leading to the facility. Iranian officials later acknowledged this attack.

Gen. Dan Caine, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, told reporters during a Pentagon briefing last Sunday that while all three Iranian nuclear sites targeted in the strike “sustained extremely severe damage and destruction,” the full damage would take time to assess.

The latest strike on Fordow comes as the Israel Defense Forces said Israel also launched a series of strikes targeting the notorious Evin prison and several Iranian military command centers in an “ongoing effort to degrade the Iranian regime’s military capabilities.”
