‘In Matter of MONTHS...’ | IAEA Chief Drops BOMBSHELL on Iran’s Nuclear Uranium Enrichment Plans

IAEA Chief Rafael Grossi has warned that Iran could resume uranium enrichment within months, despite recent U.S. strikes on its nuclear sites. Grossi emphasized that Iran’s expertise and infrastructure remain largely intact. Satellite images of Fordow show signs of possible reconstruction, contradicting Trump’s claim that Iran’s program was “totally obliterated.” The IAEA says damage was significant but not crippling. With Tehran cutting off cooperation with the UN watchdog, concerns are rising over Iran’s next nuclear move. #IranNuclearCrisis #IAEA #RafaelGrossi #Fordow #UraniumEnrichment #TrumpIranPolicy #NuclearTensions #IAEAWarns #IranStrikesBack #MiddleEastCrisis #USIranConflict #FordowFacility #BreakingNews #SatelliteImages #MaxarTechnologies #UNWatchdog #NuclearRestart #IranNuclearProgram #NuclearThreat #NuclearDealCollapse #Tehran #IranUpdate #StealthBomberStrike #TrumpClaims #IranianCentrifuges #NonProliferation #IranSanctions #GlobalSecurity #WeaponsOfMassDestruction #IAEALatest #IranFordowRepair Also Read IAEA Junks Rumours Of Radiation Leak From Any Nuclear Facility In Pakistan :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/iaea-junks-rumours-of-radiation-leak-from-any-nuclear-facility-in-pakistan-4153965.html?ref=DMDesc UN Nuclear Watchdog Chief Rafael Grossi to Visit Moscow Over Ukraine's Nuclear Safety Concerns :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/un-nuclear-watchdog-chief-visit-moscow-ukraine-nuclear-safety-011-4062419.html?ref=DMDesc Drone Attack Elevates Nuclear Accident Risk At Zaporizhzhia, Says IAEA Chief :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/drone-attack-zaporizhzhia-nuclear-plant-risks-011-3794213.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.178~ED.103~GR.124~
