New satellite imagery shows logistics vehicles and support equipment at the western entrance of the underground tunnel complex at Mount Kalang Gazala near Natanz, an Iranian site where IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi said Tehran rebuffed inspection requests with 'none of your business.' Analysts assess the activity indicates ongoing logistical operations within the underground facilities.
New satellite imagery of Iran's Mount Kalang Gazala site near Natanz has revealed logistics vehicles and support equipment at the western entrance of the main tunnel complex, suggesting active operations within the underground facility, according to analysts. The site is one where Iran has refused IAEA inspections; IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi previously recounted that Iranian authorities responded to inspection requests with 'it is none of your business.' The Zioneer has previously reported on Iran's consistent refusal to grant IAEA access to nuclear facilities, including those damaged in recent hostilities. The latest imagery, assessed by analysts, indicates that logistical activity continues at the site, raising further questions about the scope of Iran's nuclear program and the international community's ability to monitor it.
