Netanyahu accuses Iran of having secret atomic warehouse

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu claimed on Thursday that Iran was concealing a "secret atomic warehouse" in Tehran and tore into European countries for turning a blind eye to Iranian nuclear activity.

The Associated Press reported that Netanyahu made the accusation during a speech at the United Nations General Assembly. He held up maps and photos of what he claimed was a rug-cleaning operation being used as a front to house "massive amounts of equipment and material from Iran's secret weapons program."

Netanyahu said Israel provided the information about the alleged warehouse with the International Atomic Energy Agency and some other intelligence agencies, the AP reported.

Iranian officials did not immediately respond to Netanyahu's claims, according to media reports.

The prime minister went on to accuse European countries of "appeasing" Iran by continuing to do business with the country and remaining committed to the 2015 Iran nuclear deal that lifted sanctions on Tehran in exchange for curbing its nuclear program.
