Iran has reiterated that it does not seek nuclear weapons for its military, emphasizing that its nuclear program is for peaceful purposes. This statement came in response to recent comments from a Revolutionary Guard commander suggesting that Iran may reconsider its stance if threatened by Israel. The country’s Foreign Ministry spokesman made it clear that Iran’s position on nuclear weapons has been stated multiple times and the country is prepared to face any threats from Israel.
Recent tensions in the Middle East escalated after Israel bombed an Iranian Consulate in Damascus, resulting in casualties. In response, Iran launched a missile and drone attack against Israeli territory, with Israel claiming most of the projectiles were intercepted. Despite these actions, Kanani emphasized that Iran’s goal is to maintain peace and stability in the region and its attacks were targeted specifically at military sites and not civilian areas.
Israel carried out a recent drone attack on the Iranian city of Isfahan, which did not result in any damage or casualties. Kanani stated that the targets of the attack had no military value and that Iran has demonstrated its commitment to protecting its national security. While Iran seeks peace and stability in the region, Kanani warned that any aggressive actions from Israel or its supporters would be met with a firm and decisive response.
In conclusion, Iran’s stance on nuclear weapons remains unchanged as it emphasizes that its nuclear program is for peaceful purposes. The recent tensions with Israel have highlighted the volatile situation in the Middle East but Iran remains committed to protecting its national security and pursuing peace in the region.
