The head of the Israeli military has said he does not think Iran will develop nuclear weapons.
Chief of Staff Lt Gen Benny Gantz made the statement in an interview with the Israeli newspaper, Haaretz.
He said Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, had not yet made the final decision whether to build a nuclear bomb.
Tehran says it wants nuclear technology for peaceful purposes but the West believes Iran is developing weapons.
In November the UN’s International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) released a report with new evidence showing Iran was secretly working towards obtaining a nuclear weapon.
