Iran On ‘High Alert’ Over Potential Strike by U.S., Israel on Nuclear Sites

Iran is reportedly on high alert fearing that the United States and Israel are on the verge of striking its illicit nuclear facilities. 

British media reported that multiple high-level government sources confirmed Iran had changed the preparedness level for its defense systems in response to fears that an attack is imminent. 

The Islamic regime, which is the world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism, is increasing its defenses around the nuclear facilities, including the deployment of anti-aircraft launchers. 

“They [Iranian authorities] are just waiting for the attack and are anticipating it every night and everything has been on high alert – even in sites that no one knows about,” one source told the British news agency.

“Work to fortify nuclear sites has been ongoing for years but it has intensified over the past year, particularly since Israel launched the first attack.” Trump’s victory in November has only “further intensified the activities,” the source added. 

Meanwhile, a Wednesday, February 26, report from the nuclear watchdog International Atomic Energy Agency found that Iran is sitting on 605 pounds of uranium enriched up to 60% as of early February. That is a 34% increase from what the IAEA found in its last report from November, which found the stockpile sitting at 401.9 pounds. (DW/VFI News)
