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

The United States is offering a reward of up to $20 million, plus possible relocation, for information about Iran's nuclear programme, including its facilities, equipment, personnel, and material movements. The State Department's Rewards for Justice programme announced the offer, which CENTCOM shared on November 6. The notice seeks tips on Iran's nuclear infrastructure and scientific community, citing IAEA reporting from 2025 that Iran enriched uranium to 60 per cent purity, above civilian needs but below weapons-grade. It notes experts estimate the stockpile could provide material for several nuclear weapons if further enriched. The programme also cites concerns over Iran's compliance with IAEA safeguards, including lost "continuity of knowledge" on centrifuges. Past US rewards include $15 million in 2019 for IRGC financial network disruption and $20 million in 2024 for information on an alleged plot against John Bolton.
