Read excerpt
By David Albright, Sarah Burkhard, Spencer Faragasso, and the Good ISIS Team Vantor Technologies satellite imagery from September 13, 2026, shows that Iran is rapidly moving forward with the reconstruction of the Taleghan 2 facility located at the Parchin military complex.

Read excerpt
By David Albright, Sarah Burkhard, Spencer Faragasso, and the Good ISIS Team Update on passive defense measures at Pickaxe Mountain (see Figures 1 and 2): Vantor Technologies imagery from September 11, 2026, shows that the earthen mound roadblocks are still in place, blocking ground vehicle access to the Western tunnel portals.

The agreement separately controls transfers of sensitive nuclear facilities and sensitive nuclear
