Russia Sees No Evidence of Iranian Nuclear Weapons Amid Regional Conflict

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov stated that Moscow has seen no evidence Iran was developing nuclear weapons, the main justification cited by the U.S. and Israel for their recent attacks. Lavrov warned the conflict could prompt Iran and neighboring Arab countries to pursue nuclear arms, potentially escalating regional tensions. He called for an immediate cessation of hostilities to prevent civilian casualties, highlighting reports of a deadly strike on a girls' school in Iran, which U.S. officials deny targeting deliberately.
