Iran says it's not after nuclear bombs as it rejects IAEA report
Tehran: Iran criticised a new report by the UN nuclear watchdog accusing it of nuclear violations, claiming the agency is motivated by politics and reiterating it isn't seeking atomic weapons. The International Atomic Energy Agency said in a report released Saturday that Iran has significantly expanded its stockpile of near weapons-grade uranium over the past three months, enough to fuel about 10 nuclear bombs. It also said Tehran failed to report nuclear material and activities at three undeclared locations, concluding it couldn't "provide assurance that Iran's nuclear program is exclusively peaceful." Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi rejected the agency's findings in a detailed letter on Sunday, saying they were based on "fabricated data provided by the Zionist regime" and describing them as "unsubstantiated allegations" intended for "political exploitation against Iran."

Iran Denounces Nuclear Watchdog, Says U.S, Israel Fabricating Nuclear Evidence Source: Iran has slammed a new IAEA report that alleges undeclared nuclear activity and growing uranium stockpiles, calling it 'politically motivated' and based on 'false Israeli intelligence.'

He reiterated that Iran's nuclear program is peaceful, and warned that Tehran would respond if its patience is further tested. The IAEA report notes Iran now holds over 400 kg of uranium enriched up to 60% — a concerning increase of 50% since February.

Gharibabadi: Sanctions Deprived Iranian People of Medical Treatment, Equipment
Tehran-Saba: Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister for Legal and International Affairs Kazem Gharibabadi confirmed that sanctions have deprived the Iranian people of medical equipment, noting that these sanctions are part of the so-called "maximum pressure" policy against Iran.
