Iran’s Fordo Nuclear Complex Under American Bombing – But Was Iran Ready?
Recently, American stealth bombers B-2 dropped bombs on Iran’s Fordo nuclear complex, but new satellite images cast doubt on the effectiveness of this operation. Was Iran actually one step ahead of the US?
What Happened?
Fordo, a nuclear facility buried deep inside a mountain about 30 kilometers south of Tehran, was one of three targets in the US operation “Midnight Hammer” on the night of June 21-22. Initial assessments described the damage as “extremely severe,” but the latest images from Maxar Technologies show something quite different.
Iran Apparently Knew What Was Coming. The images reveal increased activity – heavy machinery digging, new access roads, and even tunnels being deliberately buried under earth. Was this an attempt to protect sensitive equipment or to complicate damage assessment? Analysts believe this was a clever Iranian tactic.
Evacuation and Protection
Iranian state media reported that enriched uranium was evacuated before the attack and moved to a safe location. International observers are concerned about the production of highly enriched uranium at Fordo, but it’s unknown how much remained at the site at the time of the strike.
What Does This Mean?
If Iran truly prepared its facility in advance, this is a major blow to US strategy. Instead of destroying critical infrastructure, the US may have just made noise and shown teeth without real effect.
Conclusion
This situation sheds new light on the US-Iran conflict. Was the American operation just a public show? Or is Iran truly a master in the cat-and-mouse game? One thing is clear – the world is once again on the brink of nuclear conflict, and Fordo is the epicenter of this tense game.
What do you think? Was Iran really ready, or did the Americans actually cause damage? Drop a comment, maybe together we’ll figure out who really won here!
