Incident at Nuclear Facility a Message to Iran

(Radio Farda) Israel's Channel 13 military analyst Alon Ben-David said the explosion at the Natanz nuclear facility has delayed Tehran's efforts to enhance its uranium enrichment capacity. "The facility, where Iran develops its more advanced centrifuges, took a substantial hit; the explosion destroyed the lab. Those were centrifuges that were supposed to be installed underground at the Natanz facility; they were intended to replace the old centrifuges and produce a lot more enriched uranium a lot more quickly." Israeli military analyst Ron Ben-Yishai said that by using the new generation of centrifuges, Iran could have acquired a nuclear bomb with staggering speed. "Tehran has received and understood the message.... Stop building new, faster centrifuges and stop developing long-range missiles capable of carrying nuclear warheads," he said.
