Iran has no ability to enrich uranium, build ballistic missiles: Netanyahu

JERUSALEM: (Mar 20) Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has claimed that Iran no longer has the capability to enrich uranium or produce ballistic missiles.

Speaking at a press conference on Thursday evening, Netanyahu said, "(Ayatollah Ali) Khamenei ordered the renewal of missile and nuclear programmes and to bury them deep underground. We are acting not only to destroy the remaining missiles, a few remain, but to destroy the industries that enable the production of these programmes.

"Now, after 20 days, I can announce to you that Iran has no ability to enrich uranium and has no ability to produce ballistic missiles," Netanyahu said in Hebrew in his opening remarks.
