The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) reported that Iran possessed 408.6 kg of uranium enriched to 60% (U-235). Experts indicate that this is nearly 90% of the weapons grade. With additional enrichment, this quantity can produce as many as nine nuclear weapons.
Following US President Donald Trump's statement that Iran's nuclear program was “completely and utterly destroyed” by US bunker busters and cruise missile attacks, concerns have arisen regarding the actual status of the program: senior officials acknowledged they are unaware of the positions of Iran's near weapons-grade uranium stockpiles, the report highlights.
According to the Iranian state broadcaster IRIB, Iran preemptively evacuated three nuclear sites targeted by American strikes.
On Sunday evening, the US military targeted three Iranian nuclear sites: Fordow, Natanz, and the facility in Isfahan.
