Netanyahu says Iran's nuclear programme hit in October Israeli strike

'A component of their nuclear program was hit in the attack,' Netanyahu said

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Monday that Israel's late October attack on Iran damaged "a component" of the Islamic Republic's nuclear programme.

"It has been published that a certain component of their nuclear programme was hit in this attack", Netanyahu told the Israeli parliament, adding that "the programme itself and its ability to operate here have not yet been thwarted."
