"Iran's Nuclear Escalation: Tensions with Israel and Washington's Response"

Iran has been steadily advancing towards nuclear weapons capability since the collapse of the 2015 nuclear deal, with its Fordow facility now producing highly enriched uranium at an alarming rate. Despite Iran's denial of intentions to build nuclear weapons, it currently possesses enough highly enriched uranium for at least three bombs and has the technological know-how to build a crude nuclear device. The collapse of the deal has limited the International Atomic Energy Agency's ability to monitor Iran's activities, and efforts to revive the deal have been futile, leaving Iran dancing on the edge of nuclear capability.
