WASHINGTON (Sputnik) - Israel believes that some of Iran's enriched uranium has survived the recent US and Israeli attacks, but is not concerned over that, The New York Times reported.
A senior Israeli official reportedly said that the country was not concerned about this fact, as any Iranian attempt to recover the enriched uranium would be detected and result in new Israeli attacks on the Iranian facilities.
US, UK, and EU intelligence agencies do not believe that Iran intends to rebuild its huge nuclear facilities in Isfahan, Fordow, and Natanz. Instead, Tehran is more likely to expand its nuclear program through numerous small, dispersed workshops, according to The New York Times.
On the night of June 13, Israel launched an operation against Iran, accusing it of implementing a secret military nuclear program. Iran rejected the accusations, responding with its own attacks. For 12 days, the parties exchanged strikes. On June 22, the United States joined Israel's bombing campaign and struck Iranian nuclear facilities. Tehran retaliated by attacking the US air base Al Udeid in Qatar. US President Donald Trump said on June 23 that Israel and Iran had agreed to a ceasefire to end the war.
