Iran: Israeli target list on the table; secret nuclear facilities to be targeted in case of attack
Iran's Supreme National Security Council (SNSC) has issued a stern warning, stating that the nation will target Israel's clandestine nuclear sites should the regime engage in any acts of aggression against the Islamic Republic.
On Monday, the Supreme National Security Council (SNSC) hailed a sophisticated intelligence operation carried out by Iranian forces, describing it as a key element of a strategic plan and clandestine actions by the Islamic establishment against adversarial propaganda.
A significant part of the strategy emphasized the Armed Forces’ unwavering determination to achieve an operational equilibrium that reflects the weaknesses and strengths of the occupying Zionist regime and its allies, the statement elaborated.
The Supreme National Security Council (SNSC) has announced that the entire list of Israeli targets is under consideration by the Armed Forces. The statement also warned that the regime’s covert nuclear facilities would become targets if any acts of aggression are undertaken.
The Supreme National Security Council (SNSC) announced that the recent acquisition of confidential Israeli documents by Iran has significantly enhanced the capabilities of Iranian forces. The council highlighted that access to this intelligence, along with the completion of the operational cycle, has provided a substantial boost to their strategic abilities.
Today, a statement claimed that Iranian forces are prepared to “immediately retaliate against any potential aggression by the Zionist regime targeting the country’s nuclear facilities by striking concealed nuclear sites.”
The statement indicated that they are prepared to respond proportionally to any hostile actions targeting Iran’s economic and military infrastructure.
The Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB) disclosed on June 7 that Iran’s intelligence network has acquired a substantial collection of strategic and sensitive documents pertaining to Israel’s covert nuclear program. The documents reportedly encompass details of plans and facilities.
On Sunday, Iran’s Intelligence Minister, Esmail Khatib, announced that sensitive materials have been covertly transported to Iran and are set to be released imminently.
Israel, recognized as a major holder of nuclear capabilities, initiated its nuclear program back in 1952 with technological assistance from both France and the United States.
The initial development of nuclear weapons is believed to have taken place around 1967-1968, as reported by various military think tanks. Following this period, the production of these weapons accelerated significantly, attracting little public outcry.
In 1986, Mordechai Vanunu, a technician at the Dimona nuclear facility, revealed the secretive nuclear program, leading to his conviction on charges of treason in 1988 and a subsequent 18-year prison sentence.
