Fordow ‘has not been seriously damaged’: Iran

Manan Raisi, who represents the Qom area where Fordow is located, says the attack on the underground nuclear site was “superficial”, Al Jazeera reports.

“Based on accurate information, I state that contrary to the claims of the lying US president, the Fordow nuclear facility has not been seriously damaged and most of what was damaged was only on the ground, which can be restored,” Raisi said, according to Tasnim news agency.

He also echoed earlier assessments that there has been no detected leakage of radioactive material after the US strikes.
