Did Israel use a nuclear bomb in Syria? Radiation spike sparks speculation
Israel conducted a massive airstrike on a weapons depot in Tartus, Syria, on Dec. 16, 2024.
Israeli Defense Forces reportedly destroyed a scud missile facility.
However, speculation has arisen about the possible use of a small nuclear weapon in the attack.
The strike caused a 3.0 magnitude earthquake, felt as far as Iznik, Türkiye, 820 km away.
Russian media claimed Israel launched a new missile from a warship, while other reports suggest the use of a B61 nuclear bomb, developed by the US.
The EU’s Radioactive Environmental Monitoring detected a spike in radiation levels in Türkiye and Cyprus 20 hours after the explosion.
The findings hint at a small-scale nuclear attack, raising global concerns.
Israel has not commented on the allegations.
