US Offers Up to $20 Million for Information on Iran's Nuclear Program

By Reuven1 min read · 45m ago

The United States is offering a reward of up to $20 million for information about Iran's nuclear program, according to the State Department's Rewards for Justice website.

The offer covers information about nuclear facilities, equipment and associated personnel, including members of the scientific community. It also includes information about the movement of those people or materials. The program says possible relocation may be available.

The Rewards for Justice notice cites the International Atomic Energy Agency's 2025 report that Iran was enriching uranium to 60 percent purity. The notice describes that as a short technical step from the 90 percent level required for a nuclear weapon.

The notice also points to the IAEA's loss of continuity of knowledge about the production and inventory of key nuclear components, including centrifuges, amid Iran's lack of compliance with safeguards obligations.

The $20 million figure is the maximum reward offered, not a payment that has already been made. The notice does not announce a new nuclear agreement or a change in Iran's enrichment activity.
