Iran Nuclear Warheads

Iran violated a U.N. Security Council resolution in October by test firing a missile capable of delivering a nuclear warhead, a team of sanctions monitors said, leading to calls in the U.S. Congress on Tuesday for more sanctions on Tehran.

Iran announced today it had successfully tested a new domestically produced long-range missile, which it said was the first that could be guided all the way to targets.

An interim deal to restrain Iran's nuclear programme aims to make it harder for the Islamic state to build any bomb but may still leave it, at least for now, with enough material for several nuclear warheads if refined to a high degree.

Iran is poised to double its output of higher-enriched uranium at its fortified underground facility, the UN nuclear agency said Friday - a development that puts Tehran within months of being able to make the core of a nuclear warhead.

Iran vowed Wednesday it "will not budge an iota" from its nuclear path despite a new UN report hardening suspicions it is seeking atomic weapons, as an Iranian general warned Israel of "destruction" if it launched an attack.
