Iran: Expert downplays damage to Nuclear Program after attacks

Tehran, June 24 (Prensa Latina) Former director of the Iranian Scientific Society of Nuclear Medicine, Mohsen Sagheri, downplayed the extent of the material damage caused by the Israeli and US attacks on facilities in the country.

“Iran’s nuclear capabilities are completely home made, and this knowledge will not be lost by destroying some centers,” the expert stated, quoted by Mehr news agency.

Furthermore, Iran’s peaceful nuclear program does not only depend on imports but is based on domestic knowledge and national scientific capacity, he stressed.

Sagheri emphasized that Iran’s nuclear program “has always been peaceful and has never had military purposes.”

Our enemies have always tried to justify their destructive actions with excuses, stressed the professor at Tehran University of Medical Sciences, who denounced the attacks, which he considered war crimes.

Israel began hostilities on June 13 with the stated goal of destroying Iran’s nuclear program, a campaign that sparked a wave of international condemnation.

This weekend, US President Donald Trump joined the aggression by ordering a bombing raid on the Fordow, Isfahan, and Natanz nuclear facilities.

After nearly two weeks of war, a ceasefire between Iran and Israel began this morning.
