Fox News reported on the reconstruction of Iran’s nuclear program, stating that Alireza Jafarzadeh, deputy director of the Washington office of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), citing newly released satellite images, said that the Iranian regime is rebuilding and reinforcing its damaged nuclear facilities — including the Natanz and Isfahan sites and other enrichment centers — and that this reconstruction indicates efforts to restore and increase uranium enrichment capacity. He also stated that these actions are taking place while the Iranian regime continues to participate in nuclear negotiations with the United States and has spoken of the possibility of readiness for war.
Independent analysis of the satellite images also points to activities at Iran’s nuclear and military sites that have been interpreted as reinforcing infrastructure and concealing key facilities — including through concrete coverings and burying tunnel entrances — at a time when tensions with Washington and Israel have increased. Experts believe such measures may be part of efforts to harden the facilities against potential attacks.
Other reports state that new satellite images show Iran has installed roofs over damaged buildings at the Isfahan and Natanz sites, making it more difficult for satellites to observe details inside these structures — an action considered the first visible sign of activity at these centers since previous attacks.
At the same time, both American sources and independent analysts note that Iran’s nuclear activity has not yet returned to the level of fully resuming enrichment at the scale seen before the attacks, and that some of the reconstruction appears to be limited to protective measures and initial repairs rather than a full restoration of nuclear capability.
These reports are being published as nuclear negotiations between Tehran and Washington continue in Geneva and the likelihood of confrontation between the two countries has increased.
