Iran on Sunday said that it would rebuild nuclear sites damaged by Israeli and US strikes “stronger than before" while Oman urged Tehran and Washington to revive the stalled diplomacy.
During a visit to the country’s nuclear programme, AFP quoted Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian as saying that Tehran “will build (the destroyed sites) stronger than before".
“By destroying buildings… we will not be set back," he said in a video posted to his official website, adding that Iranian scientists still had the necessary nuclear know-how.
Meanwhile, AFP quoted Oman, Iran’s traditional intermediary, urging the two countries on Saturday to resume talks.
“We want to return to the negotiations between Iran (and) the United States," Omani Foreign Minister Badr Albusaidi said at the IISS Manama Dialogue conference in Bahrain.
In June, Israel had launched an unprecedented bombing campaign against Iran which started a 12-day war during which it targeted nuclear and military facilities, and residential areas. The attacks also killed many top scientists.
In response, Iran attacked Israeli cities with ballistic missile barrages.
Recently, the US said it would soon impose new sanctions on Iran’s missile and drone programme.
“In the coming days, the United States will impose new sanctions targeting Iran, including its missile and drone program" as well as the Revolutionary Guards and the Iranian defense ministry, Sullivan said in a statement.
“We anticipate that our allies and partners will soon be following with their own sanctions," he added.
Earlier, the United Nations reimposed sanctions on Iran, including an arms embargo, over its nuclear programme.
These measures revive the pre-2015 restrictions that were lifted under the landmark Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) — the multilateral nuclear deal between Tehran, the EU, the US, and other global powers.
