The Director of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has stated that Iran's nuclear program demonstrates a significant level of resilience, making it resistant to conventional military interventions.

According to the IAEA, any military action that does not involve nuclear capabilities is unlikely to deter Iran's pursuit of nuclear technology.

The Director emphasized that only a nuclear conflict could realistically change the current trajectory of Iran's nuclear ambitions, underscoring the complexities of military engagement in this context.
