The U.S. envoy, Steve Witkoff, states that Iran has 460 kg of enriched uranium and can manufacture up to 11 nuclear bombs, justifying the American attacks.

Steve Witkoff, the special envoy of the USA for the Middle East, stated in an interview with Fox News that Iran possesses significant quantities of enriched uranium, estimating them at 460 kilograms at a concentration of 60%. Witkoff, who led the negotiations with Tehran, emphasized that the Iranians boasted they could produce up to 11 nuclear bombs. These statements come in the context of a U.S. military operation that led to the killing of the Iranian supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. In response, Iran launched attacks on Israel and other countries with American bases, without causing casualties. President Donald Trump warned that attacks against Iran could continue in the next five weeks.
