CLAIM · ASSESSED ~ · CONFIDENCE 0.50
Iranian media reported missiles struck energy and desalination systems in Jask, Hormozgan province, cutting water to about 10,000 residents.
WHY THIS MATTERS · This matters because with inspectors locked out of Fordow and Natanz, the world no longer knows how much enriched uranium Iran actually has, shrinking the warning time before a possible weapon and raising the odds of a preemptive Israeli or US strike based on guesswork.
