How close is Iran to developing nuclear weapons? – World

The risk of attacks on nuclear facilities has also increased with the escalation of tensions between Iran and Israel. The US has warned Israel to avoid attacks on Iran’s nuclear facilities and oil facilities.

How many nuclear facilities are there in Iran, what is their nature and to what extent Iran has nuclear power, all these things are very important and are getting the attention of analysts.

Iran has denied reports that it has and continues to have a nuclear weapons program. According to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), Iran halted its secret nuclear weapons program in 2003.

In 2015, Iran reached a deal with the US, China, Russia, Britain, France, Germany and the European Union that gave up its nuclear weapons program and eased economic sanctions.

In 2018, the then US President Donald Trump terminated the nuclear agreement with Iran, after which Iran was not bound to respect the sanctions imposed under the agreement.

Now experts say that Iran has reached 60% in terms of uranium enrichment. By reaching the 90% target, he will be able to make 4 atomic bombs.

Iran’s nuclear facilities are located in Natanz, Fardo, Isfahan, Khandab, Tehran and Bushehr. Iran’s only active nuclear power plant is located in Bushehr. Khandab has a heavy water nuclear research reactor. Heavy water reactors are considered dangerous because they help produce plutonium leading to nuclear weapons.

The nuclear facility in Isfahan converts uranium into a form that is used in centrifuges. There is also scope for the process by which the core of an atomic bomb is produced.
