S enior Israeli officials are acknowledging that some enriched uranium may have survived the powerful U.S. strikes on Iran's key nuclear sites last month.

The process of uranium enrichment increases the concentration of U-235, an isotope that can sustain a nuclear chain reaction. Beginning in 2006, the U.N. Security Council called on Iran to suspend all uranium enrichment, but it endorsed the JCPOA on July 20, 2015.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu claims Iran will not pursue nuclear weapons following U.S. and Israeli strikes, stating Tehran is afraid after feeling "the might of America and Israel."
