Half-Ton Uranium Cache Booby-Trapped: Iran’s Mines Block US Seizure

Iran's deliberate mining and tunnel collapses around its cache of near-weapons-grade uranium pose a direct challenge to US military planners considering a seizure operation.

For defense analysts, the development underscores the difficulty of securing nuclear materials in contested environments without triggering wider conflict.
