IAEA unable to verify Iran's nuclear sites
The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has concluded that Iran has not provided sufficient information regarding the status of announced nuclear materials and facilities. Furthermore, the agency has been unable to conduct on-site verification activities for over a year due to damage sustained by these facilities from attacks in 2025. The Director General of the agency urged Iran to cooperate constructively and return to the diplomatic path to resolve issues related to the Iranian nuclear program. Additionally, the agency made progress on the prior nuclear activities in Syria after being granted access to key sites such as Deir ez-Zor. It clarified that the Deir ez-Zor reactor was nearly complete and potentially capable of producing fissile materials suitable for nuclear weapons. The agency also confirmed that 73 tons of natural uranium metal are under its safeguards, with the decision regarding their retention in Syria or transfer to another country remaining in the hands of the Syrian authorities.
