Recent reports from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) indicate that Iran has significantly advanced its nuclear program , enriching uranium to levels near weapons-grade and expanding its enrichment facilities. The IAEA also reported Iran's ban on experienced inspectors, hindering monitoring efforts, and noted a substantial increase in Iran's stockpile of highly enriched uranium, sufficient for multiple nuclear weapons if further enriched. These developments led the IAEA Board of Governors to adopt a resolution finding Iran in breach of its non-proliferation obligations. Despite diplomatic efforts and a 60-day ultimatum from President Trump, Iran refused to negotiate in good faith or dismantle its nuclear program. Facing an existential nuclear threat, Israel conducted intelligence-driven preemptive strikes against Iran's nuclear sites, Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) facilities, and related military targets. These strikes were described as proportional and aimed at preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons, also eliminating several senior Iranian military leaders. In retaliation for Israel's actions, the Islamic Republic of Iran indiscriminately targeted Israeli civilian centers, resulting in 24 deaths and over 590 injuries. The House of Representatives stands with Israel in its efforts to dismantle Iran's nuclear capabilities and defend itself against these attacks. It recognizes Israel's strikes as advancing vital U.S. national security interests in a nuclear-free Iran. The resolution specifically: Supports Israel's targeted military actions and reaffirms its right to self-defense. Condemns Iran's indiscriminate attacks against Israeli civilians and its repression of the Iranian people. Calls on Iran to immediately cease its pursuit of nuclear weapons, halt enrichment, and fully dismantle its nuclear program. Reaffirms the United States' commitment to Israel's security, including through security assistance, and stands ready to provide emergency resupply and other support.
