New satellite imagery shows recent activity at the Natanz nuclear facility that was damaged during June’s 12-day war with Israel, according to the US-based Institute for Science and International Security (ISIS).<\/p>\n
During the June conflict, the IAEA confirmed Israeli strikes hit Iran’s Natanz underground enrichment plant.<\/p>\n
The think tank said the satellite imagery from December 13 show panels placed on top of the remaining anti-drone structure at the Pilot Fuel Enrichment Plant (PFEP), providing cover for the damaged facility.<\/p>\n
It suggested the new covering allows Iran to examine or retrieve materials from the rubble while limiting external observation.<\/p>\n
The Natanz uranium enrichment facility, located some 250 km south of the Iranian capital Tehran, is one of Iran’s most important and most controversial nuclear facilities in the Middle East.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
