A suspected underground Iranian nuclear site has seen a surge in construction this year, according to a review of satellite imagery published by US analysts on Wednesday.
The deeply buried site at Pickaxe Mountain is near Natanz where Western intelligence suspects Iran is building an undeclared enrichment facility.
On July 21, President Donald Trump threatened a US military strike on Pickaxe Mountain in his war against Iran that has the declared aim of destroying its nuclear program.
