Iran beschuldigt Israel der Sabotage an Natanz Atomanlage
April 12, 2021 -
Montag beschuldigt der Iran Israel, mit dem Sabotageangriff in der unterirdischen Natanz Atomanlage Schäden an den Zentrifugen angerichtet zu haben, mit denen der Iran seine Urananreicherung durchführt. Der Iran droht Israel jetzt mit Revanche.
Israel has not claimed responsibility for the attack. However, suspicion fell immediately on it as Israeli media widely reported that the country had orchestrated a devastating cyberattack that caused the blackout, AP said.
Sunday’s assault and Foreign Ministry spokesman Saeed Khatibzadeh’s comments blaming Israel could imperil ongoing talks in Vienna with world powers about saving a tattered accord aimed at curbing Iran’s nuclear programme.
If Israel was responsible, it would further heighten tensions between the two nations, already engaged in a shadow conflict across the wider Middle East. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who met Sunday with U.S. Defence Secretary Lloyd Austin, has vowed to do everything in his power to stop the reviving of the nuclear deal.
