Strike on Iran’s Fordow nuclear facility would likely cause limited radiation leak, experts say​

From CNN's Jennifer Hansler

If Iran’s Fordow nuclear facility were damaged or destroyed in a strike by the US, it would likely lead to a limited radiation leak in the immediate area, but it would not pose the same catastrophic consequences as bombing a nuclear reactor, experts told CNN.

Kelsey Davenport, the Director for Nonproliferation Policy at the Arms Control Association, said that if bombs were able to penetrate Fordow, it would likely lead to “some limited radiation from the uranium enriched and stored at the facility,” but “it’s unlikely to cause significant, widespread environmental health contamination.”

She explained that attacking a site where uranium hexafluoride gas — the material fed into the facility’s centrifuges — is stored “is going to create chemical toxicities” and “low level alpha radiation,” which would likely be localized to the site.

Davenport said that it would likely be “manageable if people are wearing the right protective equipment.”

Behnam Ben Taleblu, the Iran program senior director and a senior fellow at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies (FDD), also described the potential damage as being a chemical hazard.

“There isn’t a major radiation dispersal risk at Fordow because that enriched uranium is fresh,” explained Scott Roecker, the Vice President for Nuclear Materials Security at NTI.

“It’d be localized around the site, and because it’s buried underground too, I don’t know you know how much of that would even be released,” he said.

“Bombing a reactor is a whole different ball game,” Davenport explained.

Davenport said she believes it’s “extremely unlikely” Israel would bomb a nuclear reactor — a move that “would be a clear violation of international law.”

“You risk a reactor meltdown, widespread radiation and environmental contamination, devastating to the region,” she said.

Experts have said lots of things. They've been wrong in their predictions too.

Iran has fired around 400 ballistic missiles and 1,000 drones at Israel so far, Israeli military official says​

From CNN’s Jeremy Diamond

Iran has fired approximately 400 ballistic missiles and 1,000 drones at Israel since the conflict between the two countries began on Friday, an Israeli military official told CNN.

Of those missiles fired, approximately 20 ballistic missiles hit civilian areas in Israel, the official added.

At least 24 people have been killed in Israel since it launched its operation.

Fake news. I alerted the moderation who said that you can't post the same thing 3 times, but this fake of 98% of missiles shot down (before it was 99% now it's 98%) has already appeared here more than 25 times

This may have been signalling to the West, that if you intervene on Israel's behalf, we can go berserk and hit you directly.

Madman theory can actually prove useful for Iran in this case.

What does this pic show exactly? I'm not so sure what I'm looking at, is it a true hypersonic manoeuvrable BM? Or something else?

Why the f#*k are all of Indian Operations named after some f#*ked up Hindu reference...?

First - Ops Sindoor
Now - Ops Sindhu

What's next - Ops Tekka :rofl: .

GoI asking Indians to evacuate Iran.

Iranians saying, "...atleast our land will finally be pure (again)".

there is no threat to C&C centers in mainland America -- unless they think Iran will detonate a dirty bomb or Israel will the sampson option?

No I doubt it, US SECDEF had some interesting things to say in his testimony at the US Senate select committee on Israel-Iran crisis.

Well since the jet stream is near by the effects can get spread large area across asia

Any idiotic action is against interest of whole "Central Asia"

The rains also drop down on drinking water channels pretty sure even India will get impacted. There is potential for contamination lasting 70 years , if Israel does not stop their none sense
