policy on placing Dimona images here?

There are a few images of Dimona, some by Mordechai Vanunu, others by spy satellites, that I'd like to use to illustrate what it looks like.

There is no problem from the website owner, I asked her permission and here's the text of her reply; I've munged the email addresses on request for anti-spam reasons:

It's all right with *me*, but I claim no rights to those images.

I am of the opinion that it would be impossible for anyone to claim 
rights to the Vanunu photograph, except maybe for the Israeli government 
in whose facility the photo was illegally obtained. But no one legal 
body seems interested in enforcing that right, including the Israeli 
government itself. So it I think it is clearly in the public doman.

Wikipedia can only use public domain (or GFDL) material.
The two images I have in mind are:
