UN atomic agency confirms Iran has enriched uranium close to weapons grade
(Worthy News) – Inspectors from the United Nations nuclear watchdog found uranium particles enriched up to 83.7 percent in Iran’s underground Fordo nuclear site, a report seen Tuesday by The Associated Press and other major news outlets said, confirming earlier reports.
The confidential quarterly report by the Vienna-based International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) distributed to member states likely will raise tensions further between Iran and the West over the former’s program. That’s even as Tehran already faces internal unrest after months of protests and Western anger over sending bomb-carrying drones to Russia for its war on Ukraine.
The IAEA report only speaks about “particles,” suggesting that Iran isn’t building a stockpile of uranium enriched above 60% — the level it has been enriching at for some time. [ Source: Times of Israel (Read More…) ]
