During the recent 12-day war between Iran and Israel, Israeli forces specifically targeted and killed 17 Iranian nuclear scientists, according to reports.
The last of these, Muhammad Reza Siddiqui, was killed in an Israeli strike just before the ceasefire came into effect.
Israel had declared the destruction of Iran’s nuclear program as its primary objective at the start of the conflict.
