US EditionIran State Media: Fordow Nuclear Site Struck Again
- Iran's Fordo nuclear enrichment site was struck again on Monday, June 23, 2025, following a weekend attack at multiple Iranian nuclear facilities.
- The renewed strikes followed a joint US-Israeli airstrike operation named Midnight Hammer aimed at crippling Iran's nuclear infrastructure, including Natanz and Esfahan sites.
- Additional Israeli airstrikes targeted access routes to Fordo and Iranian regime airports, while Iran launched missile and drone salvos at Israel, escalating the conflict further.
- IAEA Director Rafael Grossi said satellite imagery showed craters at Fordo from bunker-buster bombs and expected significant underground damage, while Iranian Gen. Mousavi warned Iranian forces gained a free hand to act.
- The attacks heightened global calls for diplomacy amid fears of escalation, with EU and German diplomats urging direct US-Iran talks and warning that closing the Strait of Hormuz would be extremely dangerous.
