Alarming new satellite images show signs that the Iranian regime appears to be rebuilding its suspected nuclear facilities at Pickaxe Mountain and Parchin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Footage of both areas \u2013 which sustained extensive damage during US and Israeli-led bombing campaigns that began in late February \u2013 reveal \u201cmajor signs\u201d of activity, according to CNN<\/a>, which obtained images from private firms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

US and Israeli forces repeatedly targeted the Parchin site, which the Iranians had covered with a protective concrete shield, in the joint air campaign that was launched<\/a> on Feb. 28.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But a series of large blast holes, which were clearly visible on June 10, had been covered over 12 days later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By July 7, the damage was covered with mesh material and concrete mixer trucks were visible at the ready nearby.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It shows \u201csignificant, new attempted reconstruction activity,\u201d wrote David Albright, founder of the Institute for Science and International Security in a Saturday analysis of the information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Parchin Military Complex has long been suspected of housing secret nuclear activities.
International Atomic Energy Agency inspectors visited the site in 2004 and 2005, and said they were denied access to certain areas in 2006.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The complex also houses missile production facilities, which produce the weapons Iran uses to menace<\/a> its US allied neighbors in the Gulf region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Its Teleghan 2 site was hit twice in the latest phase of the Iran war \u2013 first around March 11, and then again sometime between March 24 and April 1, according to reports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All the while Tehran has repeatedly displayed its determination to rebuild it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis work shows a commitment by Iran to rebuild and reconstitute the capabilities previously lost, despite the immense damage at the site,\u201d the Institute for Science and International Security report said. \u201cThis would be the second attempt at reconstruction.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The MOU states that Iran will \u201cmaintain the current status quo of its nuclear program,\u201d which would seem to disallow new construction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, satellites did not appear to pick up activity at some of Iran\u2019s most notorious nuclear sites like Natanz, Fordow and Isfahan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
