Details: According to the interlocutors of the publication, intelligence indicates that Iran’s reserves of 408 kg of uranium, enriched almost to the combat level, were not concentrated in Ford, one of the two main enrichment sites at the time of the attack of last weekend. They were estimated that they were distributed to different other places.

These conclusions question US President Donald Trump’s statement that bombing has “destroyed” Iran’s nuclear program.
The interlocutors of the publication said that EU governments are still awaiting a full reconnaissance report on the extent of losses caused to Ford, which was built deep under the mountain near the Holy City City. According to them, one of the previous reports pointed to “significant losses, but not complete destruction.”
Iranian officials hinted that the reserves of the enriched uranium were taken to the US bombing, which took place in a few days of Israeli blows around the country.
Trump does not take a preliminary assessment of US reconnaissance that has leaked into the US media, according to which Iran’s nuclear program was rejected for only a few months as a result of bombing.
The Israeli Atomic Energy Commission said this week that, according to it, the US and Israel’s strikes “rejected Iran many years ago in the development of nuclear weapons.”
However, experts have warned that if Tehran retained its inventories of the enriched uranium and has installed modern centrifuges on hidden objects, it can still be able to produce the split material needed to create weapons.
What was before: The day before, the US President compared US strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities with Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombardment during World War II.
