Iranian Source: Nuclear Program Hiring "Non-Stop," Ramping Up Enrichment
(Times of Israel) Sabina Amidi - Iran is recruiting staff relentlessly to work on its nuclear program and has constructed several facilities for nuclear testing outside Tehran whose precise location is known only to high-ranking officials, according to an Iranian source who said he was hired recently as a researcher at one of Iran's nuclear facilities. "More and more young graduates and people are brought in every day," he said in a telephone interview. "We have been working non-stop." He said Iran had already enriched uranium to 30%, and "by next year, we hope to reach up to 50 or even 60%. The experience and knowledge is there, but getting the right parts at times has been difficult."
