Trump Threatens to Attack Iran's Pickaxe Mountain, Sparking Fears of Escalation

The war between the United States and Iran is moving in a dangerous direction. President Donald Trump told reporters on Friday that the United States may attack Iran's Pickaxe Mountain very soon. Trump has threatened to target this mountain before. Pickaxe Mountain is near the Natanz uranium enrichment facility, in which two tunnel complexes have been built far below the ground. Analysts say that it is a very strong fortified place. It is believed that Iran's secret uranium enrichment or safe storage site for weapons-grade uranium is hidden under this mountain. The US military has prepared a dangerous war plan to destroy this huge tunnel complex located just two kilometers from the Natanz nuclear site, which was heavily damaged by American bunker-buster bombs in June last year. Now Trump is talking about targeting this mountain again. Iran also has a bunker-mount, which some analysts call a war zone.
