Iran's Nuclear Sites Show Increased Activity Post-Ceasefire

• •Iran's nuclear sites exhibit signs of activity post-April ceasefire.
• •Esfahan is believed to hold over 265 kg of 60% enriched uranium.
• •Natanz shows extensive damage with little repair, while Fordow has increased defenses.

Following the April 2026 ceasefire between Iran, the U.S., and Israel, satellite imagery indicates renewed activity at key Iranian nuclear sites, including Esfahan, Fordow, and Natanz. The Esfahan Nuclear Complex remains largely intact, with reports suggesting it holds over 265 kilograms of 60% enriched uranium (HEU). The Natanz site shows extensive destruction from previous conflicts, with minimal repair efforts observed. At Fordow, while the underground enrichment plant is largely destroyed, Iran has increased passive defense measures around the site. The presence of HEU does not confirm active enrichment capabilities, which are currently assessed to be lacking. The situation remains tense as Iran may be preparing for potential recovery efforts at these sites.
