Iranian Researchers Acquire Know-How to Produce Molybdenum-99 Using Nuclear Technology

(May 29, 2024)

“Molybdenum is used to detect some diseases. Every week, hospitals and nuclear medicine diagnostic centers across the country need radiopharmaceuticals based on the use of technetium-m99, and more than one million patients benefit from technetium-m99 every year,” Ali Bahrami Samani, the project manager of the Molybdenum macro plan said.

“Furthermore, the hot cell facilities during the implementation of the molybdenum production plan using the method of neutron activation of molybdenum oxide were not suitable under the foreign sanctions for the rapid implementation of the industrial stage under special conditions. Also, given the restrictions imposed by the nuclear deal known as the JCPOA (Comprehensive Joint Plan of Action), it was decided that molybdenum production plan to be carried out in several stages,” the manager of the project further explained.

Radioisotopes are mainly used for diagnosing cancer, including prostate and breast cancer.

(…)

The shortage of molybdenum-99 is caused by a sudden global disruption of manufacturing capacity, with several of the nuclear reactors used to produce these elements being out of service.

There are six trusted research reactors globally for the supply of molybdenum-99, none of which are in the UK.

Iran unveils underwater missile tunnels, warns Hormuz will not stay safe if US attacks

(January 28, 2026)

The Strait of Hormuz sees more than 21 million barrels of oil pass through daily, accounting for around 37 percent of global oil traffic.

Akbarzadeh said Iran was able to track vessels sailing under different flags using modern technologies, stressing that Tehran does not seek war but remains fully prepared for one.

„If a war is imposed on us, the response will be more decisive than ever,“ he said, adding that Iran’s defensive readiness, particularly in air defence, was „very high“.

He warned that neighbouring states were considered friendly, but would be treated as hostile if their airspace, land or territorial waters were used in an attack against Iran.

More Than 300 Anti-ICE Protests Planned Across US This Weekend

More than 300 demonstrations are expected to take place across all 50 states and Washington DC, today, in what organizers are calling “ICE Out of Everywhere”.

The Polls Are Clear. Americans Don’t Want This.

(January 29, 2026)

Driving this is Americans’ belief that Mr. Trump’s policies are not delivering on the safety and security he promised — in fact, now quite the opposite. On one side of the ledger, there is a decreasing sense that roundups and deportations by federal agents are focused on true security threats. On the other, there is rising anxiety that the presence of an armed federal force in cities is actively making daily life less safe for people who live there.

FBI memos, bank record, odd emails mention Wexner in new Epstein files

The latest documents come as the U.S. House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform has subpoenaed Wexner and other associates to testify about their relationship with Epstein. Wexner will be required to testify Feb. 18.

Included in the release was a handwritten note on Justice Department letterhead from August 2007. The note says the writer exchanged messages and spoke to Wexner‘s attorney at the time.

The note says Wexner‘s attorney said the retail titan was „very advanced in age.“ Wexner, who is now 88, was 69 at the time and still leading L Brands. He eventually stepped down from the company in May 2020, roughly 13 years after the note was written.
