Iran will not move any of its enriched nuclear material out of the country and plans to use it itself, Iran’s Supreme National Security Council secretary Mohsen Rezai told Lebanon’s pro-Hezbollah outlet Al Mayadeen.

“We have informed our Russian friends that the enriched material will remain in Iran, and we will use it ourselves,” Rezai said.

He said Iran needs enriched material to design nuclear-powered ships and submarines.

Rezai also said Iran had advanced electronic-warfare capabilities that enabled it to take control of US drones and bring them down.

He warned that any new US attack would prompt Iran to target American military bases, including those farther away.

Rezai also described an end to the war on all fronts, particularly in Lebanon, as one of Iran’s core conditions.
