intelligence agencies, Western inspectors and others say Tehran had a structured military nuclear weapons program through the end of 2003. While Iran insists its program is peaceful, the U.S. In the time since, Iran has abandoned all the limits of the deal and drastically reduced the ability of international inspectors to keep watch over their program. Trump in 2018 unilaterally withdrew America from Iran’s 2015 nuclear deal, which saw Tehran agree to drastically limit its enrichment of uranium in exchange for the lifting of economic sanctions. The flyover comes after a pattern of such flights by nuclear-capable B-52 bombers since the Trump administration as a show of force to Iran.
Iran’s mission to the United Nations in New York did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Iranian state media did not immediately acknowledge the flyover. Fighter jets from Bahrain, Egypt, Israel and Saudi Arabia flew alongside the bomber.
