Scoop in by Israel destroyed active nuclear weapons research facility in Iran, officials say. Israel hit nuke weapons research site in Iran last mth, set back program—report.

But Israel’s airstrikes into Iran destroyed an active nuclear weapons research facility in Parchin, the Axios news site reported Friday, citing three US officials, one current Israeli official and one former Israeli official. Report came as UN nuclear watchdog prepares to vote on censuring Iran for refusing to cooperate with inspectors amid report that Islamic Republic told Biden administration last month it would not seek to assassinate US president-elect Donald Trump.
According to Axios, Israeli strike on Parchin — part of an hours-long op on October 26, came in response to an earlier Iranian attack on Israel — destroyed sophisticated equipment used to design explosives that could surround uranium in a nuclear device, significantly damaging Iran’s efforts to resume its nuclear weapons research.
The Israeli strike “will make it much harder for Iran to develop a nuclear explosive device if it chooses to do so,” Axios cited two Israeli officials saying.

Continue from above....Iran would need to “replace the equipment that was destroyed” if it wants to produce nuclear weapons, the report cited the Israeli officials saying, “and if Iran tries to procure it, they believe they will be able to track it” the “Taleghan 2” complex was already known to have been targeted in the strikes — as testified by satellite imagery — and was already recognized as having been a site of Iran’s earlier nuclear program which officially shut down in 2003.
US & Israeli intelligence reportedly began to detect new activity at the site earlier this year, including computer modeling, metallurgy and research on explosives, would be relevant to creating a nuclear device. “They conducted scientific activity could lay ground for production of a weapon. It was a top-secret thing. A small part of the Iranian government knew about this, but most of the Iranian govt didn’t,” a US official told Axios.
Knowledge of research at Taleghan 2 reportedly prompted the US Director of National Intelligence to change its official assessment of Iran’s nuclear program in August, which had previously noted Iran was “not currently undertaking” the activities necessary to produce a testable nuclear device.
Israel is not known to have hit other nuclear sites in the October 26 airstrikes, when dozens of Israeli aircraft took out air drone and ballistic missile manufacturing and launch sites, as well as air defense batteries. US urged Israel to refrain from hitting nuclear sites in the attack, to avoid triggering a major escalation with Iran, though it endorsed Israel’s move in responding to Iran’s October 1 attack on Israel, when the Islamic Republic shot 181 ballistic missiles at Israel, its second such direct attack since April.
To Israel, they made an exception for Taleghan 2, be'cos site was not part of Iran’s declared nuclear program, the Islamic Republic denies has a military component, but acknowledges as supposedly civilian enterprise. Had Iran acknowledged significance of attack, it would have in the process admitted its own violation of the nuclear non-proliferation treaty.

Trump’s return to office as US president in January upends nuclear diplomacy with Iran, which had stalled under the outgoing administration of Joe Biden after months of indirect talks.
During Trump’s previous tenure, Washington ditched a 2015 nuclear deal between Iran and six world powers that curbed Tehran’s nuclear work in exchange for relief from international sanctions.
Trump has not fully spelled out whether he will resume his “maximum pressure” policy on Iran when he takes office.

We won’t try and kill Trump
Also Friday, Wall Street Journal reported that an Iranian message, delivered in writing on October 14, assured the Biden administration that it would not seek to kill Trump. Message came in response to a written warning sent by the US to Tehran in September, over alleged plots to kill the former president, who has since won election to a second, non-consecutive term.
American officials have reported ongoing efforts by Iran to assassinate Trump administration members — including, but not limited to, Trump himself — who were behind a 2020 US airstrike that killed Qassem Soleimani.
He who led the Quds Force in Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps, a proscribed terror organization.
Over the summer, the US Secret Service moved to increase then-candidate Trump’s security detail, amid intelligence of an Iranian plot on his life.
Several attempts were made on candidate’s life after the change, though neither was linked to Iran. Last week, US prosecutors announced charges in an alleged IRGC-directed plot to kill Trump, which was to be carried out by an Afghan national who is at large and believed to be in Iran.
The Afghan suspect and two other men were charged separately with plotting to kill an Iranian-American dissident in New York

Israeli troops are understood to have made their deepest incursion into southern Lebanese territory since the recent offensive began on October 1, as the militant group Hezbollah considered its response to a fresh ceasefire proposal. On Friday night, Israeli forces reached village of Chama, 61 miles from capital of Beirut, known for its shrine to Saint Peter, referred to in Arabic as the prophet Shimon Al-Safa.
After reaching, Israeli troops managed to blow up shrine that lies on village’s main hill, according to reporting from Lebanon’s National News Agency (NNA). CNN has reached out to the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) for comment on the report.

Iran has warned European powers against going ahead with plans to submit a resolution to the UN nuclear watchdog censuring Tehran for its lack of cooperation with inspectors, the country’s Foreign Ministry says.
During talks with French Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot, top Iranian diplomat Abbas Araghchi said the resolution would “complicate matters” and contradict the “positive atmosphere created between Iran and the IAEA,” the Iranian foreign ministry says.
The Foreign Ministry also announces that it has summoned the British ambassador for a reprimand over the UK’s decision to sanction Iran over weapons sales to Russia.

Rumors are swirling on Hebrew news outlets and social media that the target of a massive Israeli strike in central Beirut this morning was either new Hezbollah leader Naim Qassem or senior Hezbollah officer Talal Hamiya. Qassem was appointed to lead the Iran-backed terror group after his predecessor Hassan Nasrallah was assassinated in a massive Israeli airstrike on Hezbollah’s underground headquarters in southern Beirut. Hamiya was appointed to lead the terror group’s operations division after Israel killed Ibrahim Aqil, the head of Hezbollah’s military op in a Beirut strike on September 20.

WASHINGTON – The US, Britain, France and Germany express “serious concern” over Iran’s plans to launch a series of new centrifuges for its nuclear program, urging Tehran to reengage with the UN nuclear watchdog. yesterday came after 4 Western powers brought a censure motion targeting Islamic Republic at the 35-nation board of the Int'l Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). The resolution was adopted on Thursday with serious concern. Iran’s announcement… that, instead of responding to resolution with cooperation, it plans to respond with further expansion of its nuclear program in ways that have no credible peaceful rationale,” the four nations say in a joint statement released by the US State Department.
