IAEA Report Reveals Iran Stored 60% Enriched Uranium in Underground Facility

A confidential report from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), reviewed by Reuters, has revealed that Iran stored part of its 60% highly enriched uranium in an underground section of its nuclear facility in Isfahan.

This marks the first time the agency has publicly disclosed the specific location of uranium enriched to this level. Uranium enriched to 60% is considered technically close to weapons-grade, raising concerns within the international community.

📍 First Disclosure of Exact Location

According to the report, the highly enriched uranium was kept in a subterranean storage area at the Isfahan nuclear site. The disclosure is significant, as the IAEA has previously reported enrichment levels but had not specified precise storage locations.

💥 Facility Hit in Strikes, Underground Section Intact

Diplomatic sources indicate that the facility was heavily targeted during U.S. strikes and throughout a 12-day conflict. While several above-ground structures reportedly sustained damage, the underground storage area appears to have remained largely intact.

🌍 Growing International Concern

The revelation is likely to intensify global scrutiny of Iran’s nuclear program. Analysts say the survival of the underground storage facility may carry strategic and political implications, particularly amid ongoing tensions surrounding Tehran’s nuclear activities.
