High-resolution satellite images taken in September and October 2026 reveal significant renewed activity at Iran's Min-Zadayi nuclear weapons development complex, located northeast of Tehran. The facility had previously been exposed and targeted in an Israeli strike during the "Lion's Roar" operation, which destroyed several buildings and likely damaged underground facilities, according to a report in the Institute for Science and International Security journal.
The recent satellite imagery shows regular vehicle movement around the site, following extensive cleanup operations that included debris removal and repairs to a mountainside slope. Continuous excavation and land leveling work were also observed in an area that was bombed in March 2026.
The article does not attribute the renewed activity to any specific Iranian entity or provide further details on the nature of the development work.
