Iran’s Supreme National Security Council warned Monday it would target Israel’s undisclosed nuclear facilities if attacked, following Intelligence Minister Esmaeil Khatib’s claim that Tehran had obtained sensitive Israeli intelligence, Reuters reported.

The council stated that the intelligence allows Iran to locate and strike important Israeli infrastructure, including concealed nuclear installations, in response to any assault against Iranian interests. This measure is part of a larger strategy to reinforce deterrence and assure proportionate response.

Israel maintains a policy of nuclear ambiguity, neither confirming nor denying possession of nuclear weapons.
