Iranian official raises possibility of reviewing nuclear policy if war resumes

Mohsen Rezaei, a senior Iranian security official, has said Tehran may reconsider its policy on nuclear weapons if military hostilities resume.

According to reports, Mr Rezaei said Iran could review its position on the prohibition of nuclear weapons amid the threat of renewed attacks.

He added that no final decision had been made on changing the country’s nuclear policy.

His remarks come amid reports of possible renewed US and Israeli strikes against Iran, as diplomatic efforts to prevent a further escalation of tensions continue.
