Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian said on Thursday Tehran’s enemies may be able to strike the country’s nuclear centers but cannot deprive it or its ability to build new ones.
“They threaten us that they will hit nuclear facilities… If you (the enemy) strike a hundred of those we will build a thousand other ones… You can hit the buildings and the places but you cannot hit those who build it,” Pezeshkian said, according to state media.
He made his comments after the Washington Post reported that US intelligence believes Israel is likely to launch a preemptive attack on Iran’s nuclear program by mid-year.
Israel may be considering strikes
The Wall Street Journal and the Washington Post reported Wednesday night that an American intelligence assessment determined that Israel may be considering strikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities this year,
The Washington Post claimed Israel plans to attempt a strike on Iran’s Fordow and Natanz nuclear facilities in the first six months of 2025.
