WASHINGTON — Vice President JD Vance said Monday that he believed Iran’s enriched uranium stockpile is buried beneath three nuclear facilities bombed by the US over the weekend — though other officials and experts fear that the theocratic regime may have stashed the nuclear fuel just before the attack. “Our goal was to bury the uranium, and I do think the uranium is buried, but our goal was to eliminate the enrichment and eliminate their ability to convert that enriched fuel into a nuclear weapon,” Vance told Fox News “Special Report” host Bret Baier when asked if the US knew the location of Iran’s roughly 400kg — or about 882 pounds — of uranium enriched to 60% purity. That is below the weapons-grade uranium threshold of 92% purity, but experts say the nuclear fuel currently held by Iran could be used for nefarious purposes.
