What is Iran’s Fordow nuclear site and why did Israel want a US strike?

Donald Trump said the strikes were a ‘military success’, but why was the US involved in attacking the nuclear enrichment facility?

President Donald Trump on Saturday said that a US attack on Iran’s three principal nuclear sites: Natanz, Isfahan and Fordow had led to the “obliteration” of its key enrichment facilities. Later Iranian media acknowledged part of the Fordow site had been “attacked by enemy strikes”.

“Everybody heard those names for years as they built this horrible destructive enterprise. Our objective was the destruction of Iran’s nuclear enrichment facility,” said Trump on Saturday night. “The strikes were a spectacular military success.”

Israel-Iran war live: Israel bombs ‘dozens’ of targets across Iran after US claims strikes at nuclear sites were ‘overwhelming success’

US defense secretary Pete Hegseth says attacks have devastated Iran’s nuclear programme

We’re also still awaiting reactions from the Democratic leadership in the US.

Trump’s closest supporters have posted their support for the attack on social media.

South Carolina senator Lindsay Graham says:

Good. This was the right call. The regime deserves it. Well done, President @realDonaldTrump

To my fellow citizens: We have the best Air Force in the world. It makes me so proud. Fly, Fight, Win.

The prospect of an Iranian regime acquiring nuclear weapons represents the most acute immediate threat to America and our allies.

President Trump has persistently and unequivocally stated that those threats cannot be countered without dismantling the Iranian regime’s enrichment capacity.

Fifa’s embrace of cult of celebrity reveals a fundamental tension at the heart of the game | Jonathan Wilson

The individual walk-ons at Club World Cup underline Fifa’s failure to understand that football is a team sport – just ask PSG

It is in the details that the truest picture emerges. Quite aside from the endless politicking, the forever-war with Uefa, the consorting with autocrats and the intriguing broadcast rights and partnership deals, there has been, not a new, but growing sense during the Club World Cup that Fifa doesn’t really get football. There is something cargo-cultish about it, creating outcomes without engaging in processes.

Perhaps that is inevitable with Gianni Infantino’s style of leadership; like all populists, he is big on vision and short on practical reality. It was there in the expansion of the World Cup to 48 teams.

My perfect holiday reading, by Bernardine Evaristo, David Nicholls, Zadie Smith and more

Authors including Anne Enright, Michael Rosen, Samantha Harvey and Rutger Bregman reveal their books of the summer

Zadie Smith
For me summer reading is about immersion. Three novels fully absorbed me recently. Flesh by David Szalay is a very smart and stylish novel about the 1%, filtered through the life of a Hungarian bodyguard/driver in their midst. Cécé by Emmelie Prophète (out 23 September) vividly depicts the slums of contemporary Haiti via a very online young sex worker who lives her best life on Facebook. Dream Count by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie features a series of unforgettable women trying to work out what love means. The summer read I’m looking forward to myself is Convenience Store Woman by Sayaka Murata, a true original.

David Nicholls
I would recommend two books, 800 pages and a shade under 150, depending on what you can carry. Helen Garner’s collected diaries, How to End a Story, are frank, gripping and revealing about family, marriage and the writing life, while Anthony Shapland’s debut, A Room Above a Shop, is a small, tender love story, almost a poem.

Sortie du gestionnaire d'archives PeaZip 10.4.0

PeaZip n'a jamais été abordé dans ces colonnes jusqu'à présent, alors qu'il fait partie des outils multi-plateformes permettant une transition en douceur vers le libre. Il a presque dix ans. Sortie le 14 avril, la version 10.4 continue la série 10.0 commencée en octobre 2024.

PeaZip Linux thème sombre sous Wayland
PeaZip affiché avec son thème sombre dans Wayland

Giogio Tani, le développeur de PeaZip publie plusieurs versions chaque année. Le logiciel évolue par petites touches largement testées via les fonctions "expérimentales" des versions précédentes.

icone de PeaZip

Je trouve beaucoup d'atouts à PeaZip

Il est libre, multi-plateformes, multi-architecture, portable (nomade), écrit en FreePascal avec Lazarus, ouvre et écrit plusieurs formats d'archives. Il est rapide et assez léger pour un tout-en-un (11,2 MB). Il est bien maintenu, l'auteur est transparent sur la sécurité, documentation et tutoriels sont conséquents et pédagogiques. L'interface est travaillée, sobre, ergonomique, thémable, configurable, jolie, … N'en jetez plus ! Ah si encore : il est dispo en Gtk et Qt sous X11 et Wayland, et l'auteur l'empaquête à tout va.

C'est un humble logiciel très bien foutu, très travaillé, utile pour installer des outils libres sur les systèmes proprios afin de les amener en douceur vers Linux ou *BSD (il ne fonctionne pas encore sous Haïku).

Architectures et systèmes

  • Linux x86_64, x86, ARM, aarch64 ;
  • Windows, ReactOS, Wine ;
  • Darwin, macOS Intel et aarch64 (Apple Silicon), la famille BSD.

PeaZip propose des fonctions peu courantes

  • Le moteur de scriptage intégré permet de convertir vos opérations graphiques pour les automatiser et les étendre avec des options en ligne de commande ;
  • un chiffrement solide est disponible, avec authentification à double facteur ;
  • l'interface graphique est unifiée sur tous les systèmes et architectures pris en charge, même pour les formats moins courant (zpaq, brotli, zstandard) ;
  • le gestionnaire de fichiers avancé facilite, par exemple, la vérification des sommes de contrôles, la déduplication, la conversion de formats d'archives, la recherche, etc ;
  • c'est un outil portable et nomade qu'on peut copier sur une clé usb, sur le net ou partager en réseau sans l'installer ;
  • PeaZip dispose d'une transparence et des options de suivi pour la vie privée et la sécurité.
