Iranian Nuclear Scientists in Deep Hiding Following Assassinations

Iran has sent its surviving nuclear scientists into deep hiding after Israel killed more than 30 researchers, according to The Telegraph. Many of these scientists no longer reside in their homes or teach at universities; instead, they have been relocated to secure and undisclosed locations. The move comes as part of an effort to protect them from further attacks. Israel has been accused of carrying out assassinations of Iranian nuclear scientists, with Iranian officials calling the targeted scientists ‘martyrs.’ Despite this increased security measure, Israel has described the surviving scientists as ‘dead men walking.’ The new generation of Iranian scientists is expected to continue the important work left behind by their slain colleagues. These replacements must operate in secrecy and under tight security measures to prevent further attacks on Iran’s nuclear program.
