Iranian president responds to reports of preemptive strike on nuclear facilities

Iran will still possess the ability to build new nuclear facilities in the case Tehran’s enemies carry out airstrikes, the country’s President Masoud Pezeshkian said Thursday.

The comments came after a report suggesting that US intel believes “Israel” may carry out a major strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities – according to the Washington Post and the Wall Street Journal.

The reports by US media cited intelligence reports dated to the end of the Biden administration and the start of Trump’s.

Iran’s nuclear program would be set by weeks or even months in the case “Israel” carries out the preemptive strike on the Fordo and Natanz nuclear facilities.
