Story summary

The U.S. State Department, through its Rewards for Justice program established in 1984, is now offering up to $20 million and possible relocation for anyone providing crucial information on Iran's nuclear program, including details about facilities, equipment, and personnel involved. The move comes as President Donald Trump asserts that U.S. forces have effectively dismantled Iran’s nuclear capabilities. The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) reports a lack of "continuity of knowledge" regarding Iran’s production and inventory of key components like centrifuges due to Tehran's non-compliance with IAEA safeguards obligations. Additionally, the U.S. military is setting up Task Force Iron Gate in Tampa, Florida, aimed at curtailing Iran's movement of weapons and sanctioned materials across borders; this task force estimates that a naval blockade has stopped over $25 billion worth of crude oil exports from Iran since its initiation.
