Ex-Mossad chief says ‘we toured’ Iran’s Fordo nuclear site ‘many times’

From the Liveblog of Tuesday,
August 11, 2026

Former Mossad director Yossi Cohen speaks of having toured Iran’s Fordo uranium enrichment facility several times in the past.

“We toured the Fordo nuclear site many times in order to understand the site,” he is quoted by Hebrew media outlets as saying at the Galilee Forum in Safed, without saying when the visits were or who exactly toured the site.

“Its bombing by the Americans was the fulfillment of all my dreams,” he adds.

The site, along with the Isfahan and Natanz facilities, was severely damaged by US strikes during the 12-day war between Israel and Iran in June 2025.

Reports have said the 440 kilograms of highly enriched uranium stored in the facilities was buried, but Israel believes that Iran transferred some of it to the Pickaxe Mountain site after that war.

Cohen also states “that 60% enriched uranium is still far from a bomb,” appearing to contradict experts such as David Albright, who say 60% enriched uranium can potentially be further enriched to weapons grade in a matter of weeks or even days.

Cohen has spoken publicly about Mossad activity against Iran in the past. Days after stepping down as Mossad chief in 2021, he gave an extraordinary interview on Israeli television in which he provided details of such activity. He intimated that his agency blew up Iran’s underground centrifuge facility at Natanz, gave a precise description of the 2018 operation in which the Mossad stole Iran’s nuclear archive from safes in a Tehran warehouse, confirmed that Iran’s assassinated top nuclear scientist Mohsen Fakhrizadeh had been in Mossad’s sights for years, and said the regime needs to understand that Israel means what it says when it vows to prevent Iran attaining nuclear weapons.

Speaking on Ilana Dayan’s “Uvda” (Fact) documentary show on Channel 12, Cohen indicated that he was deeply familiar with Iran’s various nuclear sites, and said that, if given the opportunity, he would take Dayan to the underground “cellar” at Natanz, where, he said, “the centrifuges used to spin.”

This is why I want a separate state for my people so that we can focus on emulating great nations like Israel in doing scientific, technological and astrological exploits.


Forget, Israel remains the number one when it comes to covert operations

My friend, stop shouting!

I am neither pro-Iran or pro- Israel.

Israel would mess up the Nigerian army.

Who feeds who? Dont they pay for their food. The rich Gulf Arab states like Saudi import almost all their food. They pay for it. It is not free

Israel is no walkover. I am against the genocide in Gaza (Hamas shouldnt have invaded it), and its poor treatment of Palestinians in the West Bank.

Israel has held its own in the Middle East for almost 8 decades. It has been transformed into prosperous nation, despite it being surrounded by enemy nations.

However, under Netanyahu, it became cocky, and began overreaching. Pride is before a fall.

It felt it was invincible. His own adviser warned him they should not invade Lebanon that Israels army was stretched thin but refusrd to listen.

Trump too was cautioned by his genersls not to start a war with Iran that it would end badly, but he refused to listen.

What does Israel pay for?

Saudi is rich and buys American weapons and imports everything with her money!

What can Israel boast of? Did you research how they beg around before jumping into topic?

They are celebrity beggars! The whole nuclear arms you talk about was begged for!

The iron dome or talk about was funded and built by the US. Trump said it point blank. Every interceptor that thing shoots is made in the US.

What does Israel have to boast about? Genetically modified tomatoes and watermelon?

Biden even said it TEN years ago! Israel was the biggest investment US made.

Call a spade a spade! They are beggars and leaches!

I don't know who your ''people'' are.
But always tell them to be law abiding, respect everyone, be civil, avoid crime, avoid drugs, be patriotic to genuine cause and other vices.
I wish you the best in all you wish yourself and your people

all humans have tendency to commit crime or illegality for personal gain or profit, it is the government's responsibility to create a working system by making adequate laws and enforcing those laws without bias or compromise to guide citizens to do the right thing and then punish those that go against the law.


No human is law abiding from childbirth, it is the law of the land, the system in place, and the law enforcement agents that help guide people to follow legal, just and legitimate pathways in life, and then bring offenders, criminals and law breakers to order.


This is where Nigeria failed as a nation.


In a situation where the law and system is selective, thereby allowing some set of people or group of people to go scold free, it only encourages more people to commit crime.


Also government marginalization, institutional marginalization and injustice against a group breeds crime and disobedience to the laws of the land.

Israel receives less than 1% of its GDP as aid and its largely military aid.

You asked facts, and I gave it to you.

Show your facts! You are the hypocrite for not kissing the truth.

He will keep quiet now. If you think you're debating with a rational person, you're wasting your time. I'll simply ignore that moniker if I were you.
