Attached is a timeline regarding the world's attempts to stop Iran from developing nuclear weapons over the years:
In recent months, various intelligence reports have accumulated, proving that the Iranian regime is approaching the point of no return. The convergence of the Iranian regime's efforts to produce thousands of kilograms of enriched uranium, alongside decentralized and fortified underground enrichment capabilities, allows the regime to enrich uranium to a military-grade level, enabling it to achieve a nuclear weapon in a short time. Additionally, in recent years, and particularly since the start of the war, significant progress has been identified in the Iranian regime's efforts to produce a weapon assembly suitable for a nuclear bomb.
The Iranian regime has been working to achieve a nuclear weapon for decades. The world has tried to stop the regime through every possible diplomatic means, but the regime has refused to halt.
The IDF is now revealing for the first time that the Iranian regime is advancing a secret program for technological progress in all aspects of nuclear weapon development. As part of the program, senior nuclear scientists in Iran have been working covertly to advance all the components required to build a nuclear weapon. In recent months, there has been an acceleration in the program, significantly bringing the Iranian regime closer to achieving a nuclear weapon. This is unequivocal proof - the Iranian regime is working to achieve a nuclear weapon.
The State of Israel has no choice left - the IDF has a duty to act to protect Israeli citizens, and we will continue to do so.
