Strikes can only have delayed Iran’s nuclear program for months while Trump tries to underpin the high fire 03:38

Tel Aviv – There was a cautious optimism in Israel on Wednesday that In the fire with Iran I would hold, at least for now. The 12 -day conflict left 28 people dead in Israel and hundreds in Iran. The high the fire negotiated by the Trump administration, and applied by President Trump personally on Tuesday, since it seemed dangerous to fail before it even seized Israel, the command of the Israel front to raise restrictions on the movement in the country, with the Ben Gurion International Airport reopening commercial flights.

The stores and restaurants were open, and the Israelis were on the beach in Tel Aviv, which had been largely empty for days when Israel hit Israel, Israel, Israel.

Both Israel and Iran hurried to claim victory. An Israeli military spokesman said Wednesday that attacks in Iran had delayed the country’s nuclear program for “many years”, while President Trump told journalists at a NATO summit in the Netherlands that Iran enrichment work was replaced “basically decades.”

These statements occur despite an initial and classified evaluation of US military intelligence that shows, according to three familiar sources that spoke with News themezone on Tuesday, that Iran’s nuclear capacity It was only retreated for monthsand not completely destroyed.

While both Israeli officials and the United States have said publicly that a complete evaluation of the damage inflicted to Iran will take some time to compile, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has called it a historical victory.

“We have eliminated the threat of annihilation by nuclear weapons,” said Netanyahu in a video address on Tuesday night. It did not make a specific mention of the damage that is believed to be inflicted on Iran’s nuclear capabilities.

Iran “won’t have a bomb and they won’t enrich,” Trump said Wednesday.

Meanwhile, Iran has tried to present its limited retaliation Attack aimed at the Al-Useid Air Base in Qatarhome of thousands of US forces, as victory, despite the fact that none of the missiles reached their goal.

The officials of the Islamic Republic have made it clear that, regardless of the damage that the nuclear program of Iran, the theocratic rulers of the country destined not only to resume, but to accelerate their enrichment work, and without any supervision of the United Nations Atomic Surveillance Agency, the International Atomic Energy Agency.

Iran’s Parliament voted on Wednesday to accelerate a proposal that would effectively stop all cooperation with the AIEA, the cooperation that expanded under the previous international nuclear agreement with Iran, and that has continued despite the serious challenges since Mr. Trump retired the United States from The pact during his first term. The Board of Governors of the OIEA voted, to the annoyance of Iran, just before Israel launched its attacks almost two weeks ago to censor the Islamic Republic for the first time in 20 years for not working with its inspectors.

Iranian parliamentary president, Mohammad Bagher Qalibaf, criticized Oiea before Wednesday’s vote, saying that the agency “refused to pretend to condemn the attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities.” He said that, for that reason, the National Atomic Energy Agency of Iran “will suspend cooperation with the OIEA until the safety of nuclear facilities is guaranteed, and the Pacific nuclear program of Iran will advance at a faster rate.”

The main clergy of Iran and its supreme leader, Ayatolá Ali Khamenei, who has the last word on all matters, did not immediately sign the measure voted by legislators on Wednesday, which is required to make the move final.

The conflicting information about the degree to which Iran’s nuclear program has been degraded left some insecure Israeli of what comes next Wednesday, including Medicine student Roy Meiri.

When asked if he felt safer, Meiri told News themezone: “I still don’t know, because I really don’t know the real damage we did there.”

But life in Israel, with high fire, at least seemed more as he did two weeks before. All the country’s war restrictions were raised by the military, and the parents brought their children back to schools throughout the country.

After being locked at home for days, Alma Rustamov could not wait to take his son Aaron to the beach.

“After saying that there is no more war with Iran, the first thing we came here,” he told News themezone.

It was also a success for Israel’s economy. The Chaim Ashkenazy restaurant in Tel Aviv generally makes an exchange without stopping in Shawarmas, and said that the security block meant a lot of lost money.

The Israeli army has said that now its attention will return to the Tenmada strip, where Israeli forces have been accused of mass murders, many of them near the help distribution sites such as desperate Palestinians look for food, almost every day in recent weeks. IDF have said that incidents are under review.

The Ministry of Health, led by Hamas de Gaza, said on Wednesday that at least 49 people had been killed during the previous 24 hours, trying to access the aid. Body after body was taken to Nasser hospital in the city of Khan Younis in southern Gaza. The head of the United Nations Agency for the Palestinians, Unrwa, criticized a controversial distribution group of new help backed by the United States and Israel on Tuesday as “a death trap that costs more lives than it saves.”

However, with the ceasefire in Iran, there was a renewed hope on Wednesday that diplomacy could help revive conversations to end the war in Gaza, and bring home to the 20 Israeli hostages that are still believed to be alive.
