Iran Blames Israel for Nuclear Site Explosion April 17, 2021 Unipro2013main Geopolitics, Top Military News </p> <h2>Nuclear Site Explosion</h2> <p> Iran’s Foreign Ministry on Monday said Israel was responsible for a power failure at the Natanz nuclear complex south of Tehran on Sunday. The facility lost power Sunday a day after Iran unveiled new advanced centrifuges capable of enriching uranium faster — violating commitments of the 2015 nuclear deal. Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammed Javad Zarid said Monday that Israel sabotaged the facility because of “progress” in talks between Tehran and world powers to lift sanctions. Foreign Ministry spokesman Saeed Khatibzadeh later said at a press conference that Israel was taking “revenge on the people of Iran for their patience and wise attitude regarding the lifting of sanctions.”<br /> “If the purpose was to interrupt the path of lifting the oppressive sanctions against Iran, they will certainly not reach their goal,” Khatibzadeh said. Last week, US and European officials said a first round of talks aimed at reviving the nuclear deal were “constructive.”<br /> <br /> Credit to : France 24</p> <p> Please support our Sponsors here :
