Due to such a policy, its nuclear capabilities and posture remain unclear. Israel has developed and deployed IRBMs and SLCMs which can load nuclear warheads. Israel has yet to ratify the CTBT. It does not declare a moratorium on production of fissile material for nuclear weapons, and abstained the UNGA resolution on an FMCT. It also voted against most of the UNGA resolutions regarding nuclear disarmament. Israel has not signed the TPNW. One of the far-right cabinet ministers made a comment suggesting the possibility of a nuclear attack on the Gaza Strip. | |||
