Iran has also boosted construction at "Pickaxe Mountain," a deeply buried facility just one mile south of the Natanz enrichment facility. Israeli officials worry the majority of Iran's enriched uranium is safely stored in "Pickaxe Mountain."

Since US strikes during the Twelve-Day War, Iran has set up a security wall around "Pickaxe Mountain" and created multiple tunnel entrances inside the mountain. Iran has also refused to allow IAEA inspectors near "Pickaxe Mountain" since the Twelve-Day War, causing fear in the international community that Iran is rebuilding key parts of its nuclear program.

Israel could use this as a pretext to launch more preemptive strikes against Iran and its nuclear facilities while also targeting the regime itself, as Iran currently faces a severe water crisis in its major parts of the country.
