US intelligence agencies recently warned both the Biden and Trump administrations that Israel will likely attempt to strike facilities key to Iran’s nuclear program this year, according to sources familiar with the assessments.

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian said on Thursday that Tehran's enemies may be able to strike the country's nuclear centres but they cannot deprive it of its ability to build new ones.

The assessment near the end of President Biden’s term found that the risks have increased as Tehran has been weakened.
