WASHINGTON — Last week, the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) held a press conference during which it exposed a new nuclear site in Iran that is involved in the regime's weaponization program.

Alireza Jafarzadeh, deputy director of the NCRI-US Representative Office, told the Washington Times: "New information received from sources within the Iranian regime reveals that a new center has been built to continue its work for the weaponization of the Iranian regime’s nuclear program."

According to the Washington Times quoting Jafarzadeh, the newest facility is fully operational and is controlled by Iran’s shadowy Organization of Defensive Innovation and Research, also known by its Farsi acronym SPND.

SPND's personnel and organizational structure remain intact, and its activities have actually expanded.

The NCRI Representative in the US, Soona Samsami, said: "Our revelation today once again proves that fact that the JCPOA did not prevent the mullahs’ activities to acquire nuclear weapons and that the regime has even reneged on its commitments stipulated in the JCPOA."

The latest revelations show that re-imposing the six UN Security Council resolutions is a necessary and indispensable step toward preventing the regime from acquiring the bomb.

In this week's featured article, former Secretary of Homeland Security Tom Ridge said: "A trial is currently scheduled to begin in Belgium on [Nov. 27] for a senior sitting Iranian diplomat who was arrested as the mastermind behind what would have been one of the largest-ever terrorist attacks on European soil.

“... The Paris terror plot has accordingly given new fuel to appeals for the closure of Iranian embassies throughout the world." — Agencies
