#UPDATE
#Iran regime officials claimed quickly today's "incident" in Natanz was nothing but an "accident" at a "site under construction."
Satellite images, however, show finalized construction of reinforced facilities.
Me:
This was no minor "incident."

#UPDATE
The news agency affiliated to #Iran's Atomic Energy Org. has released this image claiming to display the cite of this morning's "incident" in Natanz.
The very fact that Iran is pretending to be very open about this issue is quite telling & very suspicious to me.

UNCONFIRMED reports indicate the explosion in Natanz took place at the Pilot Fuel Enrichment Plant (PFEP), located above ground in the complex & enriches UF6 to up to 20% enriched uranium fuel for the Tehran Research Reactor.
There is also talk of another Stuxnet.

Quoting the @TheGoodISIS
"The site of the fire at the Natanz Enrichment Plant identified in an AEOI photo is the same building the Institute identified as centrifuge assembly workshop in 2017. See: https://isis-online.org/isis-reports/detail/previously-identified-irans-new-centrifuge-assembly-workshop/8
Also, see damages in last image.

#Iran's official IRIB network broadcasting footage of the regime's Atomic Energy Org. spokesperson touring the site in Natanz where the regime has its largest uranium enrichment complex.
Remaining footage of the interview/tour at the Natanz site.
Quite interesting that there is no aerial/drone footage of the site to see damage from above.
And the official is going by the "nothing to see here" scenario.
Is Iran hiding something?
Me: Yes

-Stuxnet
-Series of explosions in Iran feel like “more than a coincidence.”
