US airstrikes leave a mark on Iran’s nuclear sites, Maxar satellite images reveal

Fresh satellite imagery released by Maxar Technologies shows significant damage at three of Iran’s key nuclear sites, Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan, just days after U.S. B-2 stealth bombers conducted strikes ordered by President Donald Trump.

The new photos, released on June 24, provide the clearest post-strike visuals to date, showing the precision and depth of the U.S. assault on Iran’s nuclear infrastructure.

At the heavily fortified Fordow Fuel Enrichment Facility, located deep beneath a mountain near Qom, satellite views reveal multiple craters along the primary access roads and directly at the entrances to tunnel complexes. 

Several perimeter buildings were destroyed outright, and one crater can be seen blasted into the access road leading to the facility.

The Isfahan Nuclear Technology Center also shows signs of recent damage. An overview image highlights new destruction at the surface, while detailed shots capture tunnel entrances that appear to have been struck directly, echoing earlier reporting that the operation aimed to neutralize buried infrastructure previously unreachable by conventional air power.

Meanwhile, at Natanz, a site known for its history with the Stuxnet cyberattack and long a target of Israeli and American scrutiny, two craters believed to have been caused by U.S. ordnance now appear filled and covered with dirt.

These strikes had reportedly targeted the underground centrifuge halls that are central to Iran’s uranium enrichment operations.

IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi confirmed that key buildings and underground systems at all three sites were hit

American officials say Iran’s nuclear program has been severely set back.

Trump has claimed a "very successful" mission.

In addition to the nuclear sites hit by the U.S., Maxar’s images also documented separate airstrike damage in the capital city of Tehran

The images show widespread destruction believed to be linked to suspected nuclear program buildings near Tehran’s Shahid Rajaee University.

Former college football coach Steve Spurrier appears skeptical of Arch Manning ahead of first year as starter

It's been just a couple of years since Arch Manning was arguably the most highly sought high school recruit in the nation. He decided on Austin, home of the Texas Longhorns.

When Quinn Ewers was selected in the seventh round of the NFL Draft, it opened the door for Manning to become Texas' starting quarterback.

While Manning did show flashes during his limited playing time over the past couple of seasons, former college football coach Steve Spurrier doesn't appear ready to buy the hype surrounding the young quarterback.

Spurrier, who coached the Florida Gators to a national championship in 1996, questioned why Longhorns coach Steve Sarkisian elected to start Ewers over Manning the past couple of seasons considering Manning's much-discussed potential.

"Most people are picking Texas to win the SEC in football," Spurrier said during a recent appearance on "Another Dooley Noted" podcast. "They’ve got Arch Manning already winning the Heisman, too. My question is, if he was this good, how come they let Quinn Ewers play all the time last year? He was a seventh-round pick?

"You only have to ask Coach Sark how come you played that one instead of this one," Spurrier continued. "Hopefully, he’ll say, ‘Because we thought he was better than that one.’ Isn’t that why you play one guy and not the other? Unless it was discipline, and there was no discipline or anything."

During Manning's time on the bench, he faced questions about whether he would leave Texas for another program that would give him an opportunity to play right away.

"It was tough. I mean, it’s tough in this age," Manning, 19, noted when he spoke to the media in April about waiting his turn, according to The Athletic. "Sometimes it’s worth the wait."

Manning doubled down on his commitment to the Longhorns and said he hopes to remain in Austin for the foreseeable future. 

"But I hope it pays off. There’s nowhere else I want to be," Manning said. "I want to be at Texas. I’ve got friends here. I love this place. So, I want to be the quarterback at the University of Texas."

Manning appeared in 10 games last season, including two he started in place of an injured Ewers. He finished the 2024 season with 939 passing yards, nine touchdowns and two interceptions. Manning also showed his athleticism, rushing for 108 yards and four touchdowns.

Texas defeated Clemson in the first round of the College Football Playoff before a thrilling overtime victory over Arizona State in the quarterfinal. The eventual national champion Ohio State Buckeyes eliminated the Longhorns from playoff contention in January.

Texas opens the 2025 season against the Buckeyes in Columbus Aug. 30.
