Satellite images have revealed new activity at two Iranian nuclear sites previously damaged by airstrikes, with Iran constructing roofs over the affected buildings at Natanz and Isfahan. These coverings appear designed to block satellite surveillance, raising concerns that Iran may be attempting to recover or obscure nuclear materials from international inspectors, who have been denied access since the attacks. Experts suggest the work is not aimed at reconstruction but at salvaging any surviving assets, such as highly enriched uranium, while preventing outside observation. Additional satellite imagery also shows Iran continuing underground excavation at a site near Natanz and rebuilding a facility at Parchin, both moves seen as efforts to protect and advance its nuclear and missile programs despite international scrutiny.
