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

‘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~

IAEA Chief BETRAYED Iran? Ex-UN Inspector Says U.S. & Israel Got Scientist Data Through UN Watchdog [Video]

IAEA Chief BETRAYED Iran? Ex-UN Inspector Says U.S. & Israel Got Scientist Data Through UN Watchdog

Former UN weapons inspector Scott Ritter has accused IAEA chief Rafael Grossi of aiding Israel’s Mossad in assassinating Iranian nuclear scientists by leaking their identities and locations. In a June 29 interview on Iran’s Press TV, Ritter alleged that the agency under Grossi compromised Iran's scientists, directly leading to targeted killings. His claims have reignited Iran’s long-standing accusations of Western bias within the IAEA, further fueling Tehran’s decision to end cooperation with the agency. The controversy deepens tensions in the region and raises serious questions about international nuclear oversight. #Iran #IAEA #IranParliament #NuclearTensions #Khamenei #IranAttack #TelAvivUnderAttack #IranIsraelConflict #IranStrikesHaifa #HaifaPort #MissileStrike #TelAvivExplosions #IsraelIranWar #IronDome #IDF #MiddleEastCrisis #TehranRetaliation #AyatollahKhamenei #IsraelDefense #TelAvivMissiles #IranMissileStrike #IsraelUnderFire #TelAvivSkyline #MilitaryTensions #IDFHeadquarters #IsraelVsIran #BreakingNews Also Read Stop Disrespectful Tone Towards Khamenei If Trump Wants Deal: Iran Tells US :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/stop-disrespectful-tone-towards-khamenei-if-trump-wants-deal-iran-tells-us-011-7785407.html?ref=DMDesc 'You Got Beat To Hell': Donald Trump On Iran's Victory Claim :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/you-got-beat-to-hell-donald-trump-on-irans-victory-claim-7785327.html?ref=DMDesc Iran's Khamenei Warns Against Future US Attacks After Ceasefire Agreement :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/irans-khamenei-warns-against-future-us-attacks-011-7784453.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.102~HT.408~GR.124~

US HITS Sudan With Sanctions Over CHEMICAL WEAPONS Use | Army Accused Of Chlorine Gas War Crimes [Video]

US HITS Sudan With Sanctions Over CHEMICAL WEAPONS Use | Army Accused Of Chlorine Gas War Crimes

The U.S. has imposed new sanctions on Sudan following allegations that Khartoum’s military used chlorine gas during its war with the RSF. The sanctions restrict arms sales, financing, and exports to Sudan’s government for at least one year, though humanitarian aid and agricultural products remain exempt. Washington calls the attacks part of a wider crisis that has killed tens of thousands and displaced 13 million. Sudan’s government denies the claims, calling them “political blackmail.” The U.N. labels Sudan’s war the world’s worst humanitarian disaster, with 25 million in need of food aid. #Sudan #USSanctions #Khartoum #ChemicalWeapons #HumanRights #ChlorineGas #RSF #SudanConflict #WarCrimes #Genocide #HumanitarianCrisis #UNCrisis #AfricaNews #SudanWar #USForeignPolicy #MiddleEastNews #BreakingNews #SudanMilitary #SanctionsAlert #GlobalConflict #Displacement #ChemicalAttack #CrisisInSudan #AidCrisis #FoodInsecurity #InternationalLaw #WarInSudan #BidenAdmin #WarCrimesWatch #SudanUpdates Also Read Sudan's Military Says It Has Retaken Last Area Of Capital Held By Rival Paramilitary Forces :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/sudans-military-says-it-has-retaken-last-area-of-capital-held-by-rival-paramilitary-forces-4100793.html?ref=DMDesc Russia Probes Claims of Cargo Jet Shoot-Down by Sudan's Rapid Support Forces in Darfur :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russia-investigates-claimed-shoot-down-of-cargo-jet-in-sudans-darfur-region-011-3966509.html?ref=DMDesc Russia Probes Allegations of Cargo Jet Shoot-Down by Sudan's Rapid Support Forces in Darfur :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russia-investigates-claimed-shoot-down-cargo-jet-sudan-darfur-011-3966479.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~GR.124~

Trump Lifts ‘Brytal’, ‘Crippling’ Syria Sanctions | Trump Unlocks Syria’s Economy After Years Of War

In a stunning reversal of longstanding U.S. foreign policy, former President Donald Trump has lifted key sanctions on Syria, ending years of crippling economic isolation. The move comes as part of Trump’s promised Middle East shift, following the fall of Bashar al-Assad and the rise of a new interim government in Damascus led by Ahmed al-Sharaa — a former rebel commander. The U.S. Treasury and State Department jointly announced a sweeping waiver of the Caesar Syria Civilian Protection Act, unlocking billions in potential investment and opening Syria’s oil, electricity, and financial sectors to international engagement. Secretary of State Marco Rubio declared the relief vital to restoring basic services like water, energy, and sanitation. #SyriaSanctions #TrumpSyria #SanctionsLifted #TrumpMiddleEast #USForeignPolicy #SyriaNews #TrumpNews #DonaldTrump #SyriaCrisis #TrumpAdministration #AssadFall #Damascus #HTS #PostWarSyria #MiddleEastPolitics #CaesarAct #SanctionsRelief #USPolicyShift #BreakingNews #HistoricMove Also Read Lebanon and Syria Agree to Ceasefire Following Two Days of Border Clashes :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/lebanon-syria-ceasefire-agreement-border-clashes-011-4097569.html?ref=DMDesc Why Is New Syrian Regime Hunting Down And Killing Alawites Amid Escalating Sectarian Violence In Country? :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/why-is-new-syrian-regime-hunting-down-and-killing-alawites-amid-escalating-sectarian-violence-in-cou-4090547.html?ref=DMDesc Syria On Boil: Over 1,000 Dead As Alawite Minority Targeted In 'Revenge Killings' By Current Regime :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/syria-on-boil-over-1-000-dead-as-alawite-minority-targeted-in-revenge-killings-by-current-regime-4090369.html?ref=DMDesc
