    Reza Kahlili, author of the award-winning book "A Time to Betray",
    served in CIA Directorate of Operations, as a spy in the Iranian
    Revolutionary Guard, counterterrorism expert; currently serves on the
    Task Force on National and Homeland Security, an advisory board
    authorized by Congress and the advisory board of the Foundation for
    Democracy in Iran (FDI). He regularly appears in national and
    international media as an expert on Iran and







    An explosion deep within Iran’s Fordow nuclear facility
    has destroyed much of the installation and trapped about 240 personnel
    deep underground, according to a former intelligence officer of the
    Islamic regime.

    The previously secret nuclear site has become a center for Iran’s
    nuclear activity because of the 2,700 centrifuges enriching uranium to
    the 20-percent level. A further enrichment to weapons grade would take
    only weeks, experts say.

    The level of enrichment has been a major concern to Israeli
    officials, and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu repeatedly has warned
    about the 20-percent enriched stockpile.

    The explosion occurred Monday, the day before Israeli elections weakened Netanyahu’s political control.

    Iran, to avoid alarm, had converted part of the stockpile to fuel
    plates for use in the Tehran Research Reactor. However, days after the
    recent failed talks with the International Atomic Energy Agency, Iranian
    officials announced the enrichment process will not stop even “for a
    moment.”

    The regime’s uranium enrichment process takes place at two known
    sites: the Natanz facility with more than 10,000 centrifuges and Fordow
    with more than 2,700. The regime currently has enough low-grade (3.5
    percent) uranium stockpiled for six nuclear bombs if further enriched.

    Get the inside story in Reza Kahlili’s “A Time To Betray” and learn how the Islamic regime “bought the bomb” in “Atomic Iran.

    However, more time is needed for conversion of the low-grade uranium
    than what would be needed for a stockpile at 20 percent. It takes 225
    kilograms of enriched uranium at the 20-percent level to further enrich
    to the 90-percent level for one nuclear bomb.

    According to a source in the security forces protecting Fordow, an
    explosion on Monday at 11:30 a.m. Tehran time rocked the site, which is
    buried deep under a mountain and immune not only to airstrikes but to
    most bunker-buster bombs. The report of the blast came via Hamidreza
    Zakeri, formerly with the Islamic regime’s Ministry of Intelligence and
    National Security,

    The blast shook facilities within a radius of three miles. Security
    forces have enforced a no-traffic radius of 15 miles, and the Tehran-Qom
    highway was shut down for several hours after the blast, the source
    said. As of Wednesday afternoon, rescue workers had failed to reach the
    trapped personnel.

    The site, about 300 feet under a mountain, had two elevators which
    now are out of commission. One elevator descended about 240 feet and was
    used to reach centrifuge chambers. The other went to the bottom to
    carry heavy equipment and transfer uranium hexafluoride. One emergency
    staircase reaches the bottom of the site and another one was not
    complete. The source said the emergency exit southwest of the site is
    unreachable.

    The regime believes the blast was sabotage and the explosives could
    have reached the area disguised as equipment or in the uranium
    hexafluoride stock transferred to the site, the source said. The
    explosion occurred at the third centrifuge chambers, with the high-grade
    enriched uranium reserves below them.

    The information was passed on to U.S. officials but has not been
    verified or denied by the regime or other sources within the regime.

    Though the news of the explosion has not been independently verified, other sources previously have provided WND
    with information on plans for covert operations against Iran’s nuclear
    facilities as an option before going to war. The hope is to avoid a
    larger-scale conflict. Israel, the U.S. and other allies already have
    concluded the Islamic regime has crossed its red line in its quest for
    nuclear weapons, other sources have said.


    However, this information was not revealed for security reasons until
    several days ago when sources said the regime’s intelligence agency,
    through an alleged spy in the Israeli intelligence agency Mossad, had
    learned of the decision to conduct sabotage on Iran’s nuclear sites on a
    much larger scale than before.

    As reported, President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad called an urgent meeting
    Tuesday with the intelligence minister, the head of Iran’s Atomic Energy
    Organization and other officials to discuss the threat, and now it’s
    clear the meeting included the sabotage at Fordow.

    Several Iranian nuclear scientists have been assassinated in recent
    years. Last year, saboteurs struck the power supply to the Fordow
    facility, temporarily disrupting production. And a computer worm called
    Stuxnet, believed to have originated in the U.S., set Iran’s plans for
    nuclear weapons back substantially.

    The 5+1 (the United States, Russia, China, Britain, France and
    Germany) hope to resume talks with Iran over its illicit nuclear
    program. The talks ended last year after regime officials refused to
    negotiate.

    Sources in the Islamic regime previously have revealed exclusively to WND the existence of:
