President Donald Trump announced Tuesday that the United States will soon launch an attack on Iran’s underground nuclear complex near Natanz. The facility, known as Pickaxe Mountain, is heavily fortified and built within a mountain. Iran disclosed the site to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) in 2020, stating its intention to use it for assembling centrifuges. Centrifuges are crucial components in the production of nuclear fuel. The announcement signals a potential escalation of tensions between the U.S. and Iran regarding the latter’s nuclear program. The timing and specifics of the planned attack remain undisclosed. This action represents a significant shift in US policy towards Iran.
