Netanyahu Says Iran Can No Longer Enrich Uranium in Nuclear Update

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Thursday that Iran was no longer able to enrich uranium or make ballistic missiles.

Speaking in Jerusalem, Netanyahu told reporters that Israel and the U.S. had been able to remove the nuclear threats posed by Iran to the two counties and others. "

This means creating the conditions for the Iranian people to grasp their freedom to control their destiny," Netanyahu said.

Iran still has the power to carry out missile attacks around the Middle East, with strikes continuing Thursday.

U.S. President Donald Trump said earlier in the day that he was “not putting troops anywhere," as the White House continued to seek to calm markets amid oil price rises.
