Unveiling Iran's Nuclear Mystery: Movement Without Enrichment
The head of the UN nuclear watchdog, Rafael Mariano Grossi, has reported no active uranium enrichment in Iran, but recent movements at nuclear sites have been detected. Inspectors have been unable to access sites and rely on satellite imagery to monitor activity. The enriched uranium remains a focal issue.

In a candid revelation, the UN's nuclear watchdog chief, Rafael Mariano Grossi, disclosed to The Associated Press that while Iran isn't actively enriching uranium, recent movement has been noted at its nuclear sites.
Despite restricted access to these sites, Grossi emphasized that inspectors haven't detected accelerated uranium production beyond pre-June levels, although stockpiles enriched to 60% remain in the country.
Relying heavily on satellite imagery, Grossi highlighted the necessity of on-ground inspections to verify that enriched materials aren't being diverted for unauthorized use, calling this verification 'very, very important.'
