Since the inspection intensifies over the effectiveness of American US strikes last weekend on Iranian nuclear facilities, US President Donald Trump and US Secretary of Defense Pete HegSeth firmly denied the claim that Iran managed to move some of his 400 kilograms (£ 880) before bombing.
Their remarks come in the middle of growing speculation, including the analysis of satellite images, suggesting that Iran could successfully move part of his nuclear material at the weapons level, ie 408 kilograms of uranium before the attacks.
Donald Trump: “too dangerous, very heavy and hard to move”
President Donald Trump rejected the suggestions on Thursday morning that Iran had removed any uranium or nuclear material before air strikes.
“Cars and small trucks on the spot were cars of specific workers trying to cover the upper part of the shaft. Nothing was excluded from the device. It would take too long, too dangerous and very difficult and difficult to move,” Trump wrote.
President Donald Trump’s notes were published only a few minutes after the secretary HegSeth concluded a press conference in the Pentagon where he reflected the same claim.
HegSeth: “No intelligence that says things have moved”
Defense Minister Pete HegSeth, who addressed the media on Thursday, said the army had no credible information that indicates that Iran moved any uranium stock before American air strikes.
“I don’t know about any intelligence I checked, and says things aren’t where they should be – moved or otherwise,” HegSeth said while described as a frequently fiery briefing.
Defense Minister Pete HegSeth said that the claims of Trump’s administration, that the pages were “smoothed”, were based on the capabilities of used weapons.
“In the end, we are here to clarify what these weapons are capable of,” HegSeth said at a press conference on Thursday after the start of a statement that doubled the effectiveness of US strikes in Iran.
“No one is able to judge and everyone uses reflections of what they see,” he said about the Iranian nuclear device Fordow. “Therefore, Israelis, Iranians, IAEA, UN, men and a woman who recognized the ability of this weapon system acknowledges how destructive it was.”
Comments came when American officials continued to assess the full impact of strikes, which included more than a dozen £ 30,000 bomber bombs aimed at three key Iranian nuclear devices.
Experts suggest that Uranus could have been moved
Despite the assurance of Washington, several nuclear and news experts have caused doubts about whether Iranian uranium remained during the attack.
The Senior Iranian source told Reuters on Sunday that “most of the 60 percent of the highly enriched uranium at the weapons level were moved to an unpublished place before the US attack.”
Meanwhile, satellite images from Maxar Technologies revealed on Thursday and Friday before the punches “unusual activity” at the Fordow nuclear device.
Analysts have seen a long queue of vehicles sorted in front of the equipment and supported speculation about organized transmission operations.
“Iran never give up”: khamenei
In his first speech since the ceasefire, Iran and Israel have been declared, Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei sent a clear message to US President Donald Trump: Tehran “will never give up”.
86 -year -old Khamenei, the goal alone during the 12 -day conflict, issued a preliminary statement on Thursday’s uninvolved private placement. The leader did not appear in public because Israel pulled the majority of the highest brass of his army and some of the most important nuclear scientists in the country in an unprecedented attack that deeply infiltrated the Republic of Islam.
Khamenei declared a victory over Israel and the United States at its address, but it seems that Trump’s call to “unconditional surrender” hit the Iranian leader last week.
“It is not our nuclear program. The point is to give up Iran … In his statement (Trump) revealed the truth, showed his hand. The Americans had a basic problem with Islamic Iran since our revolution.”
“And it will never happen,” Khamenei said about surrender.
In his 13 -minute speech, the highest leader avoided key problems, including the damage caused by Iranian nuclear places and future interviews. He accused the US President of exaggerating the extent of damage – but he did not give any clear details.
Khamenei also did not say whether his country was participating in interviews with the US next week.
