Israel may have conducted an underground test in the Negev in 1963. On November 2, 1966, the country may have carried out a non-nuclear test, speculated to be zero yield or implosion in nature. On 22 September 1979 Israel may have been involved in a possible South African nuclear bomb test also known as the Vela Incident in the southern Indian Ocean.

Famous quotes containing the words nuclear and/or testing:
“We now recognize that abuse and neglect may be as frequent in nuclear families as love, protection, and commitment are in nonnuclear families.”
—David Elkind (20th century)
“Bourbon’s the only drink. You can take all that champagne stuff and pour it down the English Channel. Well, why wait 80 years before you can drink the stuff? Great vineyards, huge barrels aging forever, poor little old monks running around testing it, just so some woman in Tulsa, Oklahoma can say it tickles her nose.”
—John Michael Hayes (b.1919)
