US offers $20 million for Iran nuclear program details

The United States is offering a reward of up to $20 million for information about Iran's nuclear program, as announced by the State Department. The offer seeks details on nuclear facilities, equipment, scientists, and related personnel. The reward is part of the government's "Rewards for Justice" program, with informants able to contact officials via encrypted channels. The State Department cites a lack of reliable data on Iran's nuclear status, following Tehran's near-complete halt of cooperation with the IAEA after strikes last year. In 2025, the IAEA reported Iran enriching uranium to 60%, approaching weapons-grade levels, with experts estimating existing stockpiles could yield several warheads. The agency has no access to over 400 kg of near-weapons-grade uranium, though it has not confirmed Iran is developing a nuclear weapon.
