Satellite images have been released.
Iran has begun restoration work on some facilities of its nuclear program following U.S. and Israeli strikes.
This is evidenced by new satellite images analyzed by journalists at CNN in collaboration with the Institute for Science and International Security.
According to the network, images from June and July show signs of repair work at sites where enriched uranium may have been stored.
Initially, temporary shelters were erected over the strike sites. Subsequently, concrete mixers were spotted on the site, and the temporary structures were replaced with protective netting.



Experts believe that the use of heavy construction equipment and heavy truck traffic indicate preparations to repair damage caused by U.S. and Israeli strikes.
According to CNN, activity was observed, in particular, at a facility in the Parchin area near Tehran—which was repeatedly struck during the U.S. military operation—as well as at a site known as Mount Piksaks.
At the same time, journalists note that no significant signs of damage were detected at other known Iranian nuclear facilities. According to their reports, activity by missile units was observed at the complex in Isfahan.
CNN notes that these activities may raise questions regarding Iran’s compliance with the memorandum of understanding signed with the U.S. in late June.
Following mutual strikes and an escalation of tensions around the Strait of Hormuz, the U.S. and Iran concluded a framework agreement providing for an extension of the ceasefire and the start of negotiations on a final settlement of the conflict.
However, hostilities subsequently resumed. The day before, the U.S. announced strikes on 90 military targets within Iran.
