Iranian foreign minister admits serious damage to nuclear sites

Minister reaffirms commitment to nuclear program

Following yesterday's announcement that Iran's nuclear sites have been subjected to serious damage, Iranian Foreign Minister Sajjad Moraji has acknowledged the destruction and assured the country's dedication to its nuclear program. Despite the sabotage of nuclear facilities, Mr. Moraji emphasized the importance of nuclear development and emphasized that it would continue.

International response

The statement has not yet been responded to by the international community. However, fingers have been pointed at Israel, which has previously orchestrated similar attacks on Iranian nuclear programs and has a history of opposition to Iran's nuclear ambitions.

What's next?

Iran has vowed to continue its nuclear program, with Moraji stating that "the country is determined to restore the damaged infrastructure." This comes as no surprise, as Iran's nuclear capabilities have been a contentious issue for decades, with Iran insisting it is for peaceful purposes and the international community concerned about the development of nuclear weapons.
