Commentary by Russian military journalist Boris Rozhin:
[ColonelCassad] Regarding the Iranian nuclear facilities, the American mass media, citing anonymous military sources (Trump, as usual, will be furious), claim that only one of the three key Iranian nuclear facilities was seriously damaged.
We are talking about the nuclear facility in Natanz, where not only the buildings on the surface were destroyed, but also at least one was pierced by an anti-bunker bomb, which could damage at least part of the valuable equipment in the underground part of the complex.
There were no serious attempts to strike the underground complex in Isfahan. Israel and the USA destroyed or damaged part of the above-ground buildings, but anti-bunker bombs were not used there at all, so the underground part of the complex was not seriously damaged.
Several anti-bunker bombs were dropped on the facility in Fordo, which could not reach the underground part of the complex, and everything was limited to the collapse of the entrances to the complex and surface damage.
After the end of the war, Iran immediately expelled the "observers/spies" from the IAEA, completely dismantled surveillance cameras from nuclear facilities, and intensified the capture of Israeli spies.
In fact, now the USA and Israel can get information about what is actually happening in the Iranian nuclear program only through intelligence and technical intelligence channels.
If the Iranians are able to ensure sufficient secrecy, then information about the real state of Iran's nuclear project can become approximately the same as about the North Korean nuclear program. It is worth noting that it is still not known where Iran took hundreds of kilograms of enriched explosives that were not destroyed. The export of uranium was carried out even before the strikes on nuclear facilities.
| The proof is in the pudding. Let’s see what Iran manages to do along this line in the next few months and years — remembering that they daren’t assume Mossad does not see all. |
