The new fortifications were carried out in recent weeks at Iran’s Isfahan nuclear complex, where much of the regime’s near-weapons-grade uranium is believed to be buried underground. The move comes as President Donald Trump has repeatedly insisted that any final agreement with Tehran must ultimately result in the removal, destruction, or downblending of the…
