IAEA says no indications of increased radiation levels at #Iran’s main enrichment site, an early sign that #Israeli strikes haven't penetrated containment via Bloomberg Politics Bloomberg Energy Bloomberg bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Knocking out #Iran's #nuclear site in #Isfahan significant b/c it’s the only location for converting #uranium into the feedstock needed by centrifuges maintaining the fuel cycle Bloomberg Politics Bloomberg Energy #OOTT #IAEA bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

EU Foreign Policy Chief Kaja Kallas spoke with #Iran's FM Araghchi. Araghchi criticized the recent IAEA - International Atomic Energy Agency ⚛️ resolution as a ground and pretext for Israeli aggression. He said the Israeli aggression makes ongoing Iran-US talks unjustifiable.



With heavily-fortified #uranium #enrichment halls intact, wrecking the front end of #Iran's #nuclear fuel cycle may be the best #Israel can do short term -- absent significant escalation #OOTT h/t Natalia Drozdiak Kelsey Davenport Suzanne Maloney bloomberg.com/news/articles/…



#IAEA convenes emergency board session as #Iran informs Rafael Mariano Grossi it's taken special measures to protect #uranium inventories; This adds new complexity to core agency mandate to account for #nuclear material.

#IAEA DG Rafael Mariano Grossi says #Iran #nuclear inspections ready to resume as "soon as safety conditions." Given that #IAEA site visits averaged 1.4/day last year, new assessment suggests a growing verification gap the longer hostilities endure Bloomberg Energy




Thanks to my Bloomberg TV colleagues. Given the 0630CET hour and my lack of caffeine, I should clarify: the *real* back end of the #nuclear fuel cycle is handling the waste (or reprocessing); conversion is a function of running UF4 through hot fluorine #atomicwonks

Given the serious damage to #Iran's #nuclear fuel cycle, under most circumstances this might be the time for #IAEA and Rafael Mariano Grossi to call on a pause to hostilities, in order to physically verify #uranium stockpiles. Alas, not so via Bloomberg Politics #OOTT bloomberg.com/news/articles/…


Still wondering when Rafael Mariano Grossi and IAEA - International Atomic Energy Agency ⚛️ will demand a cessation of hostilities in order for #safeguards in order to urgently conduct a #nuclear Physical Inventory Verification in #Iran #OOTT bloomberg.com/graphics/2025-…
