Iran says it has 6.5 kg of 60%-enriched uranium, inching closer to weapons-grade
(Worthy News) – Iran said Tuesday that it has produced 6.5 kilograms (14.3 pounds) of uranium enriched to 60 percent purity and 108 kilograms of uranium enriched to 20% purity in five months, far ahead of the schedule set by a law passed earlier this year by Tehran.
The move takes the Islamic Republic even closer to the nuclear weapons-grade level of 90% purity.
The development came amid talks between Iran and world powers in Vienna aimed at rebuilding the 2015 nuclear deal that put curbs on Tehran’s nuclear program in exchange for sanctions relief. Iran has been increasingly violating the terms of the deal since the Trump administration withdrew the United States from it in 2018. [ Source: Times of Israel (Read More…) ]
