Iran moved most highly enriched uranium from Fordow before US strike - Reuters

Jun 22, 2025, 21:39 GMT+1

Most of the highly enriched uranium at Fordow, the site producing the bulk of Iran's uranium enriched to up to 60%, had been moved to an undisclosed location before the overnight US strikes on the site, Reuters reported, citing a senior unnamed Iranian source.

Prior to the US strikes on Fordow, satellite imagery from Maxar appeared to show a buildup of logistics activity at the site, with 16 cargo trucks and heavy machinery gathered near the entrance to the main facility on June 19 and 20.
