Iran's nuclear program has been a matter of global concern in the last few years. The international community is worried that iran can become a military power by increasing its nuclear capabilities. In this situation, israel, which considers iran a major threat, has taken several steps to strengthen its security. Recently, many incidents have come to light on this issue, which further escalate the fight between the two.
Iran's nuclear program
Iran's nuclear program started in the 1950s, but it came into the limelight when Western countries alleged that iran was moving towards the development of nuclear weapons. iran has denied these allegations and said that its program is only for energy production. But since iran has increased the level of uranium enrichment, the concern has increased further.
Why has israel become a wall in Iran's desire?
israel has considered iran a major security threat. Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu has repeatedly warned that if iran develops nuclear weapons, it could pose a threat not only to israel but to the entire region. israel believes that Iran's nuclear power will enable it to support terrorist groups and increase its influence in the region.
When were the scientists killed?
According to Iranian news reports, physicist Mohsen Fakhrizadeh was killed in an attack on a highway outside Tehran. israel was blamed for this, while some documents brought to light by the international Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) show that Fakhrizadeh was leading the AMAD program, a secret nuclear weapons effort that was shut down by Iranian authorities in late 2003. At the same time, documents of Israeli agents expelled from iran in 2018 show that some secret weapons (nuclear weapons) work continued under Fakhrizadeh in the Revolutionary Guard Research Unit established in 2011.
