Iran's security chief, Mohsen Rezaei, declared that the country will not export any enriched nuclear material, stating, 'Not a single gram of enriched nuclear material will be exported from Iran.'

Rezaei's statement came as Tehran condemned a U.S. Offer of up to $20 million for information about Iran's nuclear program, amid diplomatic efforts to end the ongoing war.

The Iranian official also informed Russia that Iran would retain its enriched nuclear material, asserting that it would be used for designing nuclear-powered ships and submarines.

Iran's stance on enriched nuclear material comes amid a broader context of economic and military tensions in the region, with the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) estimating the total cost of the war to reach $790 billion.
