Trump announced an attack on a secret Iranian nuclear facility hidden in the mountains

The article reports that U.S. President Donald Trump has announced plans to attack an alleged secret Iranian nuclear facility known as Pickaxe Mountain, which Israel believes houses enriched uranium reserves and advanced centrifuges. The facility is located deep underground in central Iran, approximately 1.5 kilometers south of the Natanz enrichment plant, which was previously targeted by both the U.S. and Israel. The site is heavily fortified and difficult to strike with air attacks or ground operations. According to the Institute for Science and International Security (ISIS), construction began in 2020, and Iran disclosed the location to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) as a potential centrifuge assembly site. Public blueprints are scarce, so experts rely on satellite imagery analysis. While the facility is believed to be under construction and not yet operational, Israeli intelligence sources claim that after an Israeli airstrike in June 2025, Iran relocated some of its enriched uranium and advanced centrifuges to this site. Despite joint efforts by the U.S. and Israel to target other Iranian nuclear sites, Pickaxe Mountain remained untouched. Recent assessments byU
