Does Israel have a nuclear bomb?

Israel has nuclear bombs.

It is estimated that Israel currently possesses approximately 80 nuclear warheads, making it the country with the largest number of nuclear weapons in the Middle East. This number exceeds that of many countries that have openly admitted to possessing nuclear weapons, including the United Kingdom and France. However, Israel's nuclear arsenal is relatively small compared to the United States and Russia, which possess thousands of nuclear warheads.

Although Israel remains silent on the issue of nuclear weapons, this does not mean that the international community is ignoring it. Several investigations into Israel's nuclear weapons have been launched by the United Nations. However, the Israeli government has refused to cooperate and kicked off the United Nations investigation team. This attitude has triggered more questions and controversy, making the issue of Israel's nuclear weapons the focus of attention of the international community.
