US EditionIAEA Says Iran Stored Near-Weapons-Grade Uranium Underground
The IAEA warns Iran stores 440.9 kg of uranium enriched up to 60% underground at Isfahan, raising verification concerns amid restricted site access after last year’s strikes.
- The IAEA's confidential report identified uranium enriched up to 60% stored in an underground tunnel complex at the Isfahan nuclear facility on Friday.
- Following June's U.S.-Israeli strikes, Iran restricted International Atomic Energy Agency access and suspended cooperation, leaving the agency unable to verify uranium stockpiles at four declared enrichment facilities in Iran.
- The IAEA reported that Iran holds about 440.9 kilograms of 60% enriched uranium, which could suffice for up to 10 nuclear bombs if further enriched, and confirmed storage of 20% and 60% material at the Isfahan site near a tunnel complex entrance with observed vehicular activity.
- Circulated to IAEA member states on Friday, the report precedes a quarterly 35-country board meeting and Vienna technical discussions, increasing pressure on United States and Iran negotiations.
- IAEA warned that loss of continuity of knowledge must be urgently addressed, confirming 20% and 60% enriched material at Isfahan and noting a fourth declared but unverified enrichment facility.
