LONDON — Iran will hold nuclear talks with Britain, France and Germany, Iranian state media reported Monday, days after they threatened to reimpose U.N. sanctions on the country by the end of August unless there was progress on a deal to limit its nuclear program.

Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei warns of further attacks against the U.S. and Israel despite degraded military program, though experts caution that Tehran's missile capabilities remain a threat.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Tuesday that Israel in its 12 days of war with Iran had removed the threat of nuclear annihilation and was determined to thwart any attempt by Tehran to revive its programme.

Though the ceasefire between Israel and Iran has been holding, 'The war remains an unfinished project, for both sides,' one Middle East expert warns.

Israel’s tally of war damage it has wrought on Iran includes the targeted killings of at least 14 nuclear scientists and experts.

Iran's Fordow nuclear facility, buried under rock, represents a critical threat that only U.S. bunker-busting capabilities can neutralize as Tehran nears weapons-grade uranium.

Israeli leaders said the attack was aimed at preventing Iran from acquiring a nuclear bomb as the country enriches uranium a short, technical step away from weapons-grade levels. Iran long has said its program is peaceful and U.S. intelligence agencies have assessed Iran was not actively building a weapon.
