Iran Could Have Nuclear Weapon in Just 12 Days, Breakout Would Be Difficult to Detect: Report


iran nuclear deal(Worthy News) – Iran’s breakout time to produce enough fuel for a nuclear weapon has dropped to just 12 days, according to a new analysis of the latest reports by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), the United Nations’ nuclear watchdog.

The Institute for Science and International Security, a US-based think tank, on Friday released its assessment of a pair of IAEA reports on Iran showing that despite the Islamic Republic slowing its rate of production of highly enriched uranium and “downblending” some of its existing stockpiles to lower levels of purity, the time to breakout has actually shortened and may be harder to detect.

“Iran retains the ability, using 40 kilograms (kg) of 60 percent highly enriched uranium (HEU) and three or four advanced centrifuge cascades, to break out and produce enough weapon-grade enriched uranium for a nuclear weapon in 12 days,” the report says. “This breakout could be difficult for the IAEA to detect promptly, if Iran delayed inspectors’ access.” [ Source: Algemeiner (Read More…) ]
