Iranian politician Alireza Zakani, head of the Majles Research Center said in the wake of the April 11 blast in the Natanz nuclear facility that Iran must increase uranium enrichment to more than 60%. He made these remarks in an interview that aired on Ofogh TV (Iran) on April 12, 2021. Zakani said that Iran needs uranium enriched to 56% in order to fuel the propellants in submarines and for “other purposes.” He also said that uranium enrichment to more than 60% is what increases Iran’s bargaining ability and it is also what Iran needs. Zakani said that the 20% enrichment in Fordow can be quickly directed in a way that would be “tangible” to the West. He stated: they will realize that they cannot toy with us. He said that Iran has become a “haven for spies,” and the fact that Obama had agreed to pay $1.7 billion in exchange for the release of American journalist Jason Rezaian is a message to “all other spies” that their price is high and they should betray their country. Rezaian, an Iranian-American journalist was imprisoned in Iran on espionage charges. For more about Alireza Zakani, see MEMRITV clips Nos. 8519, and 7253.

Sounds like Bibi remains active. The Israelis are not going to allow suicidal ragheads to blow up their country.
God bless the Mossad.
Almost like Trump uprooted and salted every Iranian sapling hussein & valjar planted.
These guys are sitting on an ocean of oil.
What do they need uranium for?
Mossad denies ever having heard of a country called Iran.
It's called 'world domination' and 'Jihad'
Blowed up, real good!
Pretty sure it only has to be 3.2% to fuel a nuclear reactor. Perhaps the small reactors in nuclear submarines require a bit more concentration for some reason, but not 56%.
More to the point, Iran doesn't have any nuclear submarines. They tried to get Russia to retro-fit one of their old Kilo class diesel electric subs with a nuclear reactor, but Russia declined. It was a lunatic idea. Iran has since announced that they are developing a reactor for submarine propulsion domestically, but Iran says a lot of things and this is not generally deemed a credible boast.
Power through terroristic threats.

Some call him: Mr Vax
I’m thinking that they need 20% to be used for fuel and 95% for weapons. But I think that higher concentrations than 20% are needed for breeder reactors to produce plutonium 239 which is very useful for weapons and much easier to produce than weapons grade uranium.
I sure wish we could find out how it was done.
I hope, most take anything Iranians say with lots of grains of salt...
I think, one Iranian expert said that the explosives were planted inside a table...
What Iran needs is another explosion, this time taking out the fanatics and their scientists/workers.
As for Natanz, as Bing Crosby once sang, “Let it glow, let it glow, let it glow”.
were planted inside a table...
Probably the last time they order from Stein and Sons Table Supply Super Store.
