Iran’s Covert Nuclear Moves: IAEA Report Reveals Secret Bomb-Making Explosions

A shocking revelation by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has exposed Iran’s clandestine efforts to develop nuclear weapons, casting serious doubt on ongoing nuclear negotiations with the United States.


Key Highlights of the IAEA Report

  • Iran has secretly conducted nuclear-related experiments over the last 20 years aimed at creating nuclear bombs.

  • The report, based on files stolen by Mossad in 2018, details two implosion tests in 2003, critical for nuclear bomb detonation, with no civilian application.

  • Iran reportedly has technical designs and capabilities to make at least 9 nuclear bombs.

  • Secret sites including Lavizan-Shian, Marivan, Varamin, and Turkuzabad were involved in bomb-related activities, with uranium gas cylinders and radiation measuring devices discovered.

  • Significant quantities of uranium have disappeared from labs, suggesting concealment of nuclear materials.

  • Iran has repeatedly provided incomplete and contradictory information to the IAEA investigators.


Why This Matters Now

  • The report arrives amid delicate talks between the US and Iran for a new nuclear deal.

  • Israel has already hinted at possible military action against Iran if it advances its nuclear weapons program.

  • Experts warn Iran could potentially re-activate these plans and develop nuclear weapons capability as early as 2025.


International Reaction

  • The IAEA has called for the matter to be escalated to the United Nations Security Council.

  • International think tanks and nuclear experts, including David Albright from the Institute for Science and International Security, stress the urgency of addressing this threat.

  • The report damages Iran's credibility and raises alarms about its transparency.
