Iran is carrying out construction work at Natanz, the nuclear facility damaged in a massive fire this summer, according to new satellite images released on Wednesday.
Imagery from the San Francisco-based Planet Labs and carried by the Associated Press indicate construction on a road to the south of Natanz, Iran’s largest uranium-enrichment site. The road heads toward what “analysts believe is a former firing range for security forces at the enrichment facility.”
