🇺🇸 DEF SEC. HEGSETH: U.S. STRIKES ON FORDOW RENDERED THE FACILITY INOPERABLE "I'm looking at [the DIA report] right now... it was preliminary, a day and a half after the actual strike... There's low confidence in this particular report. How about the Israeli Atomic Energy Commission? 'The devastating US... strikes on Fordow destroyed the site’s critical infrastructure and rendered the enrichment facility inoperable.' Here's the head of the UN Atomic Energy Agency this morning, Rafael Grossi: 'US and Israeli strikes caused enormous damage to Iran’s nuclear sites.' The IDF’s Chief of Staff: 'We significantly damaged the nuclear program, setting it back by years. I repeat - years.'" Source: Aaron Ruparshow more

The U.S. strikes on Iran's Fordo facility achieved their strategic objective - obliterating critical nuclear infrastructure through precision bunker-buster bombs as outlined in Operation Midnight Hammer. The IAEA's confirmation that centrifuges were "completely destroyed" by vibration damage validates the Pentagon's assessment that Iran's enrichment capabilities suffered catastrophic failure. This aligns with Section 409 of the Maximum Pressure Act, which mandates crippling Iran's uranium weaponization capacity. Media outlets dismissing these results ignore battlefield realities - Fordo's mountain shielding couldn't withstand GBU-57 penetrators detonating at depth. While reconstruction attempts are inevitable, the 2025 strikes bought crucial time by demolishing hardened sites that took Tehran decades to build. Deterrence requires visible enforcement of red lines, not press-approved half-measures.

🇺🇸🇮🇷 TRUMP: WE OBLITERATED IRAN'S NUCLEAR SITES "A statement came in from the Atomic Energy Commission of Israel. I just wondered this is an official letter, and they're very serious people, as you know. The devastating US strike on Fordow destroyed the site's critical infrastructure and rendered the enrichment facility totally inoperable. It was devastated. We assess that the American strikes on Iran's nuclear facilities has set back Iran's ability to develop nuclear weapons for many years to come. This achievement can continue indefinitely if Iran does not get access to nuclear material, which it won't." Source: President Donald J. Trump

This will be an interesting site for archaeologists: these are reportedly the entry holes left by American GBU-57 super-bombs on their way to the underground uranium enrichment facility at the Fordow nuclear center in central Iran !!! UPDATE: More Israeli air strikes are reported right now on the Fordow nuclear center.

NOW: President Trump tells the nation that Iran’s key nuclear facilities have been COMPLETELY and TOTALLY OBLITERATED. “Tonight I can report to the world the strikes were a spectacular military success.” Wow. Moments ago, President Trump addressed the nation from the White House for the first time since the U.S. military launched massive strikes on Iran. “A short time ago, the U.S. military carried out massive precision strikes on the three key nuclear facilities in the Iranian regime.” “Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan.” “Everybody’s heard those names for years as they built this horribly destructive enterprise.” “Our objective was the destruction of Iran’s nuclear enrichment capacity and a stop to the nuclear threat posed by the world’s number one sponsor of terror.” “Tonight I can report to the world the strikes were a spectacular military success.” “Iran’s key nuclear enrichment facilities have been COMPLETELY and TOTALLY OBLITERATED.”

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇷 IRAN COULD HOLD BACK IF U.S. STRIKES NUCLEAR SITES There’s growing pressure on Trump to consider limited strikes on Iran, including sites like Fordow. But if the U.S. hits Iran’s nuclear infrastructure, the regime would face a painful loss. While the program is vital to Tehran, Iran’s supreme leader has shown respect for American military power. After the U.S. killed Qasem Soleimani in 2020, Iran’s response was restrained. Analysts say Iran may again take the hit and retreat rather than risk total escalation. Source: US Ship of State

The Fordow Enrichment Facility – Iran’s nuclear facility at Fordow is located approximately 100 kilometers southwest of Tehran. It was built under a mountain near the city of Qom and is protected by anti-aircraft batteries. The facility appears to have been designed to withstand aerial attacks. According to satellite imagery, its construction began between 2002 and 2004, but Iran only reported its existence to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) in 2009, after Western intelligence agencies, led by the United States, exposed the facility. Fordow is a relatively small facility, capable of housing only about 3,000 centrifuges. This led analysts to believe that the site could be used to divert and rapidly enrich low-grade uranium (from 60% to 90% — the level required for nuclear weapons). Under the nuclear deal form 2015 (JCPOA), Iran agreed to halt enrichment at Fordow and convert the facility into a research center. However, after the U.S. withdrew from the agreement, Iran resumed its enrichment activities there. Recent IAEA reports indicate that Iran has increased its production of uranium enriched to 60% at the Fordow facility, which currently houses approximately 2,700 centrifuges. Reports suggest that Iran could convert its current stockpile of 60%-enriched uranium into roughly 233 kilograms of weapons-grade uranium within three weeks — enough for nine nuclear bombs. Fordow is a central focus in Israel’s efforts to disrupt and dismantle Iran’s nuclear program. However, the United States is the only country that possesses the type of bomb necessary to successfully strike the underground Fordow nuclear site from the air.

International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) chief Rafael Grossi has described the condition of the three Iranian nuclear sites targeted by the US strikes. ▪️ Fordow Craters are visible at the Fordow site, Iran's main location for enriching uranium to 60%. Indicating the use by the United States of America of ground penetrating munitions. At this time, no one, including the IAEA, is in a position to assess the underground damage at Fordow. ▪️ Isfahan At the Isfahan nuclear site, additional buildings were hit overnight with the U.S. confirming their use of cruise missiles. Affected buildings include some related to uranium conversion process. Also at this site, entrances to tunnels used for the storage of enriched material appear to have been hit. ▪️ Natanz At the Natanz enrichment site, the fuel enrichment plant has been hit again with the U.S. confirming that it used ground penetrating munitions. There has been no increase in offsite radiation levels at the three sites.
