Iran hasn’t tried to repair nuclear facilities damaged in US strikes, UN nuclear chief says

Grossi said inspectors cannot verify Iran’s uranium stockpile and urged renewed access after the Security Council referred Tehran for noncompliance.

  • On Tuesday, International Atomic Energy Agency Director General Rafael Mariano Grossi told the Security Council that inspectors have found no repairs at nuclear sites damaged in U.S. and Israeli strikes since June 2025.
  • President Donald Trump insists strikes in June 2025 'obliterated' Iran's atomic program, yet the IAEA reports it cannot verify the status of facilities damaged during the conflict.
  • Inspectors remain unable to verify 440.9 kilograms of uranium enriched to 60 percent, as Iran continues blocking access to atomic sites in violation of safeguard obligations under the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.
  • U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. Mike Waltz labeled Iran a 'brutal dictatorship' during Tuesday's Security Council debate, demanding explanations for Iran's failure to satisfy safeguard obligations.
  • Russia and China attempted to block the Security Council meeting, signaling difficulty in achieving consensus on punitive measures against Tehran as both nations hold veto power.
