🚨 President Donald Trump says Pickaxe Mountain is next.
“We’re going to take out Pickaxe Mountain. Tell the Iranians to be ready.”
Pickaxe Mountain is Iran’s deepest and most heavily fortified suspected nuclear facility, buried roughly 80-100 meters beneath granite near Natanz. It was built after the 2020 sabotage of the Natanz centrifuge complex as a hardened fallback site.
Neutralizing it would likely require multiple B-2 Spirit bombers dropping sequential GBU-57 Massive Ordnance Penetrators in coordinated waves, alongside electronic warfare, suppression of Iranian air defenses, real-time ISR, and repeated strikes on tunnel entrances, ventilation shafts, and supporting infrastructure.
Even then, military analysts assess the mountain may be too deep for conventional bunker-busters to fully destroy, making access denial and operational paralysis a more realistic objective than complete destruction.

The Times: Fedorov is being encouraged to launch an anti-corruption political party and is seen by some as a future presidential contender. His growing popularity, combined with Zelensky’s history of sidelining influential allies, has fueled speculation that the move may have strengthened a potential rival rather than weakened him.
