IAEA Iran uranium concerns deepened after the UN nuclear watchdog urged Tehran to disclose the fate of its enriched uranium and allow inspections to resume fully, Reuters reported.
The confidential International Atomic Energy Agency report was sent to member states on June 4, 2026, Reuters reported. IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi told Iran that it cannot suspend its Non-Proliferation Treaty Safeguards Agreement “under any circumstances.”
The Associated Press reported that the agency cannot fully monitor Iran’s nuclear activities because of conflict-related limits. It also said the IAEA cannot verify key data on Iran’s uranium stockpile, including material enriched up to 60%.
The Bushehr nuclear power plant was the only Iranian nuclear facility inspected since February. Inspectors visited Bushehr from June 1 to June 3.
Bushehr uses uranium supplied by Russia for power generation. The visit does not resolve questions over Iran’s enrichment sites.
