‘Too dangerous': Trump reiterates Iran moved ‘nothing' before US strikes
United States President Donald Trump took to Truth Social, saying 'nothing was taken out of facility' before the US targeted strikes against nuclear facilities in Iran. US Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth and Chairman of Joint Chiefs of Staff General Dan Caine have addressed the press at the Pentagon, discussing the United States strikes on Iran in further detail. Mr Trump said the cars and small trucks seen on Maxar Satellite Imagery were 'concrete workers trying to cover up the top of the shafts', and it would be "too dangerous" to move enriched uranium.

Nuclear expert questions whether Iran moved enriched uranium before US strike
Nuclear expert Michael Cohen speculates whether Iran may have transported enriched uranium before the US targeted their nuclear facilities. Maxar Satellite Imagery reveals 16 cargo trucks lined along the main road approaching an underground tunnel entrance of the Fordow Fuel Enrichment Facility. 'Crucially, what has been moved before the attack, hard to say — potentially easier to move enriched fuel — much harder if not impossible to move the enrichment facilities that enrich that fuel,' Mr Cohen told Sky News Australia. 'It depends on what the enriched uranium is stored in and how far away it has been moved. 'We don't know what other facilities are nearby, how far the Iranians moved them, and wherever they've been moved to have been beyond the range of the bunker-buster bombs.'
