The ministry spokesperson, Maria Zakharova, stated that this statement raised numerous questions, particularly regarding Israel's admission of possessing nuclear weapons, which it does not publicly acknowledge. Zakharova called for the involvement of the International Atomic Energy Agency and international nuclear inspectors to address this issue.
