The first image of Fordow has now been released, a set of munition entry holes are visible just above the suspected underground facility while signs of land subsidence is seen, possibly as the area of interest caved inwards as result of the strike

When analyzing the penetration points on the site schematic of Fordow (revealed in 2018 as part of the “Amad” nuclear project archive), it is evident that they were carefully selected to target the facility’s main corridors.
These corridors are located beneath the thickest rock layer and are where uranium enrichment activities take place.
 
As of now, it is not possible to determine whether the bombs penetrated the dozens of meters of rock and reached their intended targets.

Despite diplomatic tensions, Israeli–UK tech community thrives in London
Inside the Israeli Tech Parliament—a grassroots network quietly building bridges through innovation far away from politics
 
[...]
 
Meet the Israeli Tech Parliament (ITP)—a volunteer-led network of around 3,000 Israeli professionals operating at the heart of the UK’s tech economy. While official relations between Downing Street and Jerusalem may be under strain, this thriving diaspora of founders, investors, engineers and executives is helping deepen the human and economic ties between the two nations.
“Politics may be unpredictable, but what we’re building here is long-term,” says co-founder and community lead David Fogel.
“We’re showing that people-to-people diplomacy—through tech, entrepreneurship, and shared ambition—still works.”
 
Founded in 2014 by a small group of Israeli expats looking to connect over coffee and code, ITP has grown into a full-blown ecosystem. Its members include senior leaders at Google, Meta, Amazon and Microsoft; alumni of elite Israeli units like 8200; and a wave of young entrepreneurs founding companies across fintech, AI, healthtech and climate innovation.
 
More than just networking, ITP has become a platform for real economic value creation. Member startups have collectively raised over $1 billion in venture capital, created thousands of jobs and helped drive over £1.5 billion in M&A activity across Europe.
 
[...]
 
TP’s momentum contrasts sharply with headlines from Westminster and Whitehall. Earlier this year, the UK became the first European country to impose individual sanctions on Israeli ministers over their rhetoric during the ongoing war in Gaza. In the wake of these moves, government officials warned of a potential reassessment of parts of the UK–Israel Trade and Partnership Agreement, fueling anxiety among exporters, tech firms and investors.
 
But on the ground, within the actual tech trenches, a different story is unfolding. “We’ve felt nothing but support from the UK tech sector,” David explains. “Whether it’s access to capital, talent, or platforms—we’re seeing more engagement, not less.”
Indeed, several recent fundraises by ITP-affiliated startups have included joint UK–Israeli cap tables, with VCs from Tel Aviv and London often co-investing. One early-stage climate tech venture recently closed a £6 million seed round from a consortium including a Tel Aviv family office and a London-based deep tech fund.
 
And it’s not just about capital. ITP has launched mentorship tracks for Israeli students studying in the UK, partnered with accelerators like Entrepreneur First, and worked with HR teams to help Israeli newcomers navigate the UK job market—Visa rules and all.
“There’s a certain tenacity that comes from being Israeli,” says Dana, a product director at a major UK fintech and longtime ITP volunteer. “It’s direct, it’s fast, and it’s always ‘how can we help each other?’ That mindset makes us natural ecosystem builders.”
 
What began as a London-based group has now seeded micro-communities in Manchester, Cambridge, Berlin, and even Tel Aviv, with plans for deeper pan-European collaborations. The group’s next event series will focus on three pillars: AI regulation, female founders, and Israeli scaleups going global.
 
[...]
 
In a year dominated by conflict, sanctions, and diplomatic strain, the story of the Israeli Tech Parliament stands out as a powerful counter-narrative.
It reminds us that economic bridges often outlast political ones. That volunteerism and vision still matter. And that when it comes to tech, talent, and tenacity—Israelis abroad are among the most powerful ambassadors their country has.

Ex-Mossad chief: In 2011 Netanyahu ordered military to ready Iran strike

Israël a brandi la menace d'une attaque préventive contre les installations nucléaires de la République islamique, qui affirme pour sa part ne poursuivre que des buts civils.

A tel point que l’un de ses adversaires politiques, l’ancien chef d’état-major Shaul Mofaz, qui est d’origine iranienne, a confié, en 2012, que M. Nétanyahou était animé par « une conviction messianique de bombarder l’Iran ».

A senior U.S. official acknowledged that the B-2 attack on the Fordow did not destroy the facility but severely damaged it.
