# The International Atomic Energy Agency is warning that an Israeli attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities could push Tehran closer to developing nuclear weapons. Israel’s undeclared atomic weapons programme makes it the only country in the Middle East with nuclear bombs. This comes as the US and Iran are in the midst of ongoing negotiations over Tehran’s nuclear programme. IAEA chief, Rafael Mariano Grossi, says Iran possesses enough enriched uranium to produce several nuclear bombs, which requires monitoring.
