Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has publicly stated that Iran is developing nuclear weapons, but Israeli security agencies reportedly possess different intelligence. A representative from the security establishment indicated that agencies lack information confirming the Prime Minister's assertions about Iran resuming its nuclear weapons program. Speaking at a graduation ceremony for officers at the National Security Academy, Netanyahu declared that Tehran had not learned from past events. He claimed that Mojtaba Khamenei had lifted existing restrictions, leading Iran to restart its nuclear weapons development, which Netanyahu described as "death bombs." However, the security official emphasized that the services do not have data to support these claims.
