Iran vows to rebuild nuclear sites after U.S. strikes, denies weapon ambitions, and rejects past nuclear limits.

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian announced on November 2, 2025, that Iran will rebuild its nuclear facilities "with greater strength" after U.S. strikes in June targeted sites Washington said were linked to a weapons program. Pezeshkian reiterated Iran's stance that its nuclear program is for peaceful, civilian purposes, including public health and medical needs, and denies seeking nuclear weapons. The remarks come amid escalating tensions, with President Donald Trump warning of further military action if Iran restarts damaged facilities. Iran has declared it is no longer bound by prior nuclear restrictions.
