NEW Report: Significant Activity Identified at Minzadayi, an Iranian Nuclear Weapons Development Site High resolution @vantortech satellite imagery from September and October 2026 shows significant renewed activity at Minzadayi, a nuclear weapons development compound northeast of Tehran revealed by Israel during the 2026 war.  The compound was attacked by Israel on March 3rd, 2026, destroying several buildings and likely underground structures. The recent satellite imagery indicates a return to regular vehicle activity around the site post extensive cleanup operation that included the clearing of rubble and debris and repair of damage on the hillside.  One area attacked in March 2026 shows ongoing earth moving activity.  The earth moving activity is occurring at a surface made to look like a courtyard where multiple craters could be seen following the attacks on the site in March 2026. Significant vehicle presence can be seen throughout the site between early September and early October 2026. Cars are parked outside the security perimeter in the parking lot, and many passenger vehicles and trucks can be seen inside the perimeter.  Given what is known about this compound, this activity may be indicative of an effort by Iran to reestablish a nuclear weapons development capability and to reconstitute what was lost in the attack on the compound.   Based on public reporting and statements released by the IDF, the nuclear weapons work carried out here likely involved research and development on nuclear warheads.  The IDF originally stated, that a “group of nuclear scientists operated covertly to develop a key component in the nuclear weapons system,” adding that “the complex is designed to enable the restoration of the required technology and the advancement of capabilities for the development of nuclear weapons.” @IntelliTimes, released additional information on the compound.  In a post from September 24, 2026, it states that the nuclear weapons related infrastructure was established in 2022 and “absorbed part of the means from the nuclear warehouse,” a common reference to the Turquz Abad site revealed by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in September 2018.  Netanyahu revealed the site following Iran’s removal of more than a dozen shipping containers from the site that were assessed to hold nuclear material and equipment relevant to Iran’s nuclear weapons capabilities.[4]  When the IAEA visited Turquz Abad in March 2019, it found evidence that nuclear material or contaminated equipment had been present at the site and the IAEA Board has since been pressing Iran to answer the IAEA’s questions about the current whereabouts of said material and/or equipment. @IntelliTimes indicates Iran did not simply move the material and/or equipment to a new long term storage site but used the new site in northeast Tehran, aka Minzadayi, to establish an”  industrial nuclear headquarters for the reconstruction of research, development, and adaptation infrastructure for nuclear warheads,” including the means to “produce cores of enriched uranium and the explosive material required to cast into them the detonation chain.”[5]  The current renewed effort underway at this highly secure compound suggests that the work being conducted here is of top priority.

Just your reminder that the apparent leading candidate to become the next Secretary of the US Army has absolutely no problem telling the world that this building made of sheet metal surrounded by 6' T walls is a "secure facility that was fortified".
This “reporting” from CBS is not true. A Tactical Operations Center is not a “makeshift office space.” The secure facility was fortified with 6-foot walls. Here are the facts: 1. We have the most extensive Air Defense umbrella in the world over the Middle East right now and control of the skies is increasing with every wave of airpower. The Iranian Navy has been devastated, and our military is dominating. 2. Every possible measure has been taken to safeguard our troops — at every level. The Department is prepared for this engagement and has hardened our defenses. We’ve moved a significant number of our troops off the X and will always protect our bases and people from a significantly weakened Iran. We will continue fighting in a way that honors our six fallen: no apologies, no hesitation. Epic fury for them and for every American lost at the hands of Iranian radicals.

We’ve got updated intel on Russia’s preparations for a massive strike. I ask you, please, to take care of yourselves and respond to missile threat alerts. Ukrainian services and our Air Force are ready to respond – as much as our defenses allow. And a lot depends on our partners – every country in the world that has the defensive capabilities we need and can provide them to us. It’s very important that there be the political will to do this – particularly in the United States and in Europe.

A medical officer's plan to evacuate wounded soldiers at Port Shuaiba, Kuwait, was never briefed or put in place after she was sent to Jordan, according to an Associated Press investigation of the March 1st Iranian drone strike that killed six U.S. soldiers and wounded dozens in the opening day of Operation Epic Fury. AP reports the officer had prepared an evacuation plan that included collection points for moving the wounded. She was among a group sent to Jordan, and the plan was never implemented. Seven soldiers, including senior officers stationed at the port, told the AP the unit went into the war without a broad plan for a mass casualty event. After the strike, soldiers whose phones still worked used Google to find the nearest medical facilities, AP reports. One group of wounded was treated at a Kuwaiti hospital for about 48 hours, then stayed in residential homes in Kuwait for another week because Iranian missiles and drones made evacuation flights risky. They eventually flew to Germany on a cargo plane. Source: apnews.com/article/iran-war-…

🚨 BREAKING: Sweden is deploying Patriot systems to Poland Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson said Stockholm will also send Gripen fighter jets to Poland. Their mission will be to protect a NATO logistics hub through which weapons and other allied assistance are delivered to Ukraine. The deployment is intended to secure one of the key military supply routes to Kyiv. And yes — Kristersson also reminded that Sweden’s accession to NATO was a direct consequence of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
