During a speech to the UN General Assembly, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu claimed that Iran has a secret “atomic warehouse” in Tehran, which has contained as much as whopping 300 tons of “nuclear-related material.”
“Today I am disclosing for the first time that Iran has another secret facility in Tehran, a secret atomic warehouse for storing massive amounts of equipment and material for Iran’s secret nuclear weapons program,” Netanyahu stated.
He further claimed that Israeli troops had conducted a raid on Iran’s “nuclear atomic archive” and reffered to the previous alllegations on the matter that was released by Israel.
“Just last month, they removed 15 kilograms of radioactive materials” from this facility the prime minister stated adding that this material has allegedly been spread around Tehran, endangering the city’s residents.
Netanyahu repeated the allegations that Iran has not abandoned its nuclear weapons ambitions.
“Why did Iran keep a secret atomic archive, and a secret atomic warehouse?” he said adding that “What Iran hides, Israel will find”.
According to Netanyahu, Israel would act in Syria, Lebanon and even Iraq “to defend against Iran’s aggression”.
