Satellite imagery has revealed three large impact craters at a facility inside a military complex in Iran that has previously been linked to nuclear weapons research.


According to the Clash Report, citing The War Zone (TWZ), the images show the craters aligned in a straight line at the Taleghan-2 site within the Parchin military complex.






Analysts say the pattern of destruction suggests the strikes may have targeted a hardened underground structure.


The damage has led to speculation that Northrop B‑2 Spirit stealth bombers could have deployed the 30,000-pound GBU‑57 Massive Ordnance Penetrator (MOP), a bunker-busting bomb designed to penetrate deeply buried and reinforced facilities.


However, the exact type of weapon used in the strike has not been officially confirmed.
