Israeli satellite firm reports ‘unusual’ activity at Iran nuclear site
2018-05-04
[IsraelTimes] Images of Fordo show full parking lot, open gates to 'uranium enrichment tunnels,' but no indication of illicit activity.

An Israeli satellite imaging company on Thursday released images showing what it described as "unusual" movement around the Iranian Fordo nuclear facility, a one-time uranium enrichment plant buried deep underground that was converted to a research center as part of the 2015 nuclear deal.

The photographs, which show large numbers of vehicles at the entrance to the facility and other signs of increased activity there, do not in themselves indicate any violation of the nuclear accord, known formally as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, or JCPOA.

#3  Saddam's nuclear facility at Osirak. Note the berm. Very high, and difficult to climb (lots of huffing and puffing to reach the top)....unless you were a very fit Maori SAS NCO. Berm was ringed by Russian made Triple-A batteries. Didn't stop the IS Air Force from taking it out however. See 'Operation Opera.'

#2  ...that was converted to a research center as part of the 2015 nuclear deal.

...The underground site, which has been protected by the powerful S-300 air defense system since 2016,

Now why would a 'research site' need protection from a missile defence system?

#1  The test site in North Korea has collapsed.

Maybe they're preparing a new one in Iran for the joint Iranian-Nork nuclear project.
