First satellite images of Fordow after US bunker buster bomb strike show extensive damage

The first public satellite images of Iran’s Fordow nuclear site offer a glimpse of the damage that US bunker buster bombs did to the facility following President Trump’s surprise attack Saturday.

Before-and-after images reveal the once-brown mountainside turned gray in parts. The topography of the surrounding mountain also is changed — suggesting the bombs made a serious impact on the nuclear enrichment site and left extensive debris.

American B-2 stealth bombers dropped a dozen 15-ton bunker buster bombs on Fordow, which is built into a mountain south of Tehran and runs up to 300 feet underground, according to the New York Times.

Light gray smoke also appears to be hanging in the air over the site, the images taken by Planet Labs LBC and analyzed by AP show.

Other satellite images suggest Iran sealed up the tunnel entrances at Fordo before the attack.

Tehran is yet to issue a damage assessment of the site.
