Rome, 22 June (LaPresse) – Iran has stated that its nuclear knowledge ‘cannot be destroyed’ after the United States carried out a series of attacks on the Islamic Republic's nuclear facilities on Sunday. ‘They should know that this industry has roots in our country and that the roots of this national industry cannot be destroyed,’ said the spokesman for the Atomic Energy Organisation of Iran, Behrouz Kamalvandi, according to the Tasnim news agency, as reported by Al Arabiya, while admitting that ‘of course, we have suffered damage, but this is not the first time the industry has suffered damage.’ Kamalvandi himself, speaking to the Iranian news agency YJC, said that efforts to develop the civil nuclear sector would continue: ‘Considering our capabilities, the nuclear industry must continue to operate.’
