SAEDNEWS: Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi revealed that the extent of damage at the Fordow nuclear facility is severe, though precise details remain unclear.
According to Saed News, Abbas Araghchi, Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister, addressed concerns about recent developments at the Fordow nuclear site, describing the damage sustained as “very serious and extensive.” Speaking on Wednesday, Araghchi acknowledged the uncertainty surrounding the exact situation at the facility, stating that “no one has precise information about what is currently happening at Fordow.”
The Fordow site, one of Iran’s key uranium enrichment facilities, has long been a focal point of international scrutiny amid ongoing tensions over Iran’s nuclear program. Damage reports emerged in the wake of an incident that remains shrouded in mystery, with limited official commentary and conflicting narratives circulating.
Araghchi’s remarks mark one of the clearest acknowledgments from an Iranian official regarding the scale of the damage. While the government has not confirmed the cause—whether accidental, technical malfunction, or sabotage—concerns have grown over potential impacts on Iran’s nuclear capabilities and the broader geopolitical fallout.
Video footage accompanying Araghchi’s statement highlights the gravity of the situation but offers few concrete details. The incident at Fordow adds another layer of complexity to already strained international negotiations concerning Iran’s nuclear activities and regional security.
