Yossi Cohen Says Mossad Toured Iran’s Fordow Site Many Times

Revealing deep intelligence access, Cohen's remarks leave unclear whether Mossad agents physically entered the underground complex.

Overview

  • Yossi Cohen said Tuesday that Mossad operatives "toured" Iran’s Fordow uranium‑enrichment facility many times to study its layout and defenses.
  • Cohen praised the U.S. military strike on Fordow in June 2025 as "the fulfillment of all my dreams" and said Iran’s uranium was enriched to about 60 percent, which he described as below weapons grade.
  • He did not specify whether the "tours" involved boots on the ground or remote and technical surveillance, leaving direct verification of physical entry unresolved.
  • U.S. officials have said six B‑2 bombers dropped 12 Massive Ordnance Penetrator bunker‑busters on Fordow in June 2025 and that the weapons reached the underground complex via ventilation shafts after clearing concrete.
  • Prediction‑market odds for a U.S.‑Iran deal that includes reconstruction funding fell after the disclosure, signaling weaker diplomatic prospects following the intelligence revelations and the strikes.
