Desperate Iranian Regime Must be Confronted
PRESS CONFERENCE ADVISORY
WASHINGTON, DC – On Friday, January 31, 2025, at 11:00 a.m., the U.S. Representative Office of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI-US) will reveal undisclosed intelligence on the Iranian regime’s covert efforts to produce nuclear warheads.
The intelligence, sourced from within the regime by the Iranian Resistance, details:
- Locations of the sites.
- Names of key experts and officials involved.
- Methods and agencies involved in concealing these activities.
The press conference will expand on the implications of the new intelligence for global security and the need for decisive action.
The NCRI’s history of exposing the regime’s nuclear ambitions includes the 2002 Natanz uranium enrichment revelation, which led to the IAEA inspections and international sanctions, and the 2011 exposure of SPND, the regime’s nuclear weapons development organization—later verified by the IAEA and sanctioned by the United States.
