The exposure of the previously secret underground Fordow enrichment facility near Qom by outside intelligence agencies in 2009 made a further mockery of attempts to claim the programme was entirely peaceful.

2009年，境外情报部门曝光库姆附近之前保密的福尔多地下铀浓缩设施，这对伊朗企图声称其核项目完全和平无疑是更进一步的嘲讽。

These may have included the murders of at least four scientists, the infection of computers at enrichment facilities by a debilitating worm called Stuxnet and, in November, an explosion at a missile-testing site near the town of Bid Kaneh.

这类事件可能包括至少四起针对伊朗科学家的谋杀案，伊朗铀浓缩设施计算机受一种精心研制的名为“震网”的蠕虫病毒感染，以及去年11月在比得卡纳镇附近导弹试验基地的一起爆炸案。
