Israel launched air strikes targeting Iranian nuclear facilities, claiming Iran was months away from producing a nuclear bomb. Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu cited intelligence indicating progress on weapon components. However, experts like Kelsey Davenport dispute the immediacy of the threat, citing Iran's "near-zero breakout" time. While Iran's uranium enrichment has increased, the US intelligence community maintains Iran isn't currently building a nuclear weapon. The IAEA has expressed serious concern over Iran's enrichment levels and non-compliance, prompting Iran to announce further enrichment activities.
