"With the help of the expertise of our nuclear scientists, we will continue developing peaceful nuclear technology with determination," the organization wrote. "The enemies’ desperate attacks cannot break this nation’s will."
The statement followed an earlier remark by Mohammad Eslami, head of the AEOI, who vowed that Iran’s "young, revolutionary scientists" would carry forward the work of nuclear scientists killed in an Israeli attack.
"The path of our nuclear martyrs will be pursued with strength and hope," Eslami said.
