—❗️🇮🇷/☢️ BREAKING: Significant new activity has been detected at the Minzadayi site, a highly secure compound east of Tehran that was alleged by the IDF in March 2026 to be involved in the research and development of nuclear warheads

After Israel attacked the compound during the recent war, the IDF officially stated that a group of nuclear scientists operated covertly at this location to advance ‘a key component in nuclear weapons development’, including the means to produce cores of enriched uranium and the explosive material required to cast them into the detonation chain.

According to the Institute for Science and International Security, a think-tank specialized in nuclear proliferation, recent satellite imagery from the Minzadayi site indicates a return to regular vehicle activity around the site following an extensive cleanup operation that included the clearing of rubble and debris and repair of damage on the hillside. Cars are parked outside in the parking lot, and many passenger vehicles and trucks can be seen inside the security perimeter. 

The current effort underway at this highly secure compound suggests that the work being conducted here is of top priority.

—❗️🇮🇷/☢️ NEW: Iran has resumed excavation and development at one of its largest dormant projects, the Abyek underground complex, codenamed ‘Site 311’ by Western and Israeli intelligence agencies

The site is located along the Tehran-Qazvin corridor, roughly 100 km from Tehran. The facility is excavated into mountainous terrain and includes several tunnel portals, likely connected to an extensive underground network including dozens of halls and bunkers, one of the largest of its kind in Iran.

Satellite imagery indicates a major project, with large volumes of excavated spoil, supporting infrastructure, and substantial rock overburden providing protection for facilities inside the mountain.

Most of the excavation work at this site took place between 2007 and 2016. Work largely ceased afterwards for unknown reasons.

Immediately following Operation Epic Fury, however, satellite imagery showed a clear change: Iran has returned to the project and resumed excavation at a rapid pace not seen at the site in roughly a decade.

The site attracted international attention in 2010, after it was accused of being a secret uranium-enrichment facility. The claim was never independently verified, and there is still no conclusive public evidence that uranium enrichment has taken place at the site. Its precise purpose remains unknown.

—❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇷 Vice President J.D. Vance: ‘If Iran wants the war to end, it has to reduce its nuclear enrichment capacity’

(Interesting word choice: ‘Reduce’, not ‘give up’ as has been the U.S. position)
