Israel’s Defence Minister has appeared to imply that his country is prepared to assassinate Iran’s nuclear scientists following a historic deal with the West. Moshe Ya’alon, the former chief of staff of the Israeli Defence Forces, gave a damning assessment of the nuclear agreement between Iran and a number of western nations in an interview with German newspaper Der Spiegel. The 65-year-old minister condemned the deal, reportedly telling the newspaper “ultimately it is very clear, one way or another; Iran’s nuclear programme must be stopped.” Asked whether Iran would see further deaths of its nuclear scientists, he allegedly told the newspaper: "We should be ready to defend ourselves. I’m not responsible for the lives of Iranian scientists."
