The IAEA issued a confidential report stating it cannot verify that Iran has not diverted nuclear material and called for inspectors to be allowed back to Iranian nuclear sites.
The International Atomic Energy Agency circulated a confidential report to member states on Friday stating it cannot conclude there has been no diversion of declared nuclear material from peaceful activities in Iran. The report expressed concern about the Isfahan Fuel Enrichment Plant, which Iran declared in 2025 but has not allowed inspectors to visit, and called for verification activities to resume without further delay. Iran told the IAEA that inspections cannot resume amid what it described as threats of armed aggression by the US president.
