UN nuclear watchdog warns that Iran could resume enriching uranium within months | BBC News
Iran has the capacity to start enriching uranium again – for a possible bomb – in “a matter of months”, the head of the UN’s nuclear watchdog has said.
Rafael Grossi, head of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), said US strikes on three Iranian nuclear sites had caused severe but “not total” damage to the enrichment programme.
That contradicts claims by US President Donald Trump that the US bombing had “totally obliterated” the nuclear facilities.
Meanwhile Iran’s deputy foreign minister has told the BBC that the US must rule out any further strikes on Iran if it wants to resume diplomatic talks. Majid Takht-Ravanchi says the Trump administration has told Iran through mediators it wants to return to negotiations, but had “not made their position clear” on the “very important question” of whether they might conduct further attacks while talks are taking place.
Israel attacked nuclear and military sites in Iran on 13 June, claiming Iran was close to building a nuclear weapon.
The US later joined the strikes, dropping bombs on three of Iran’s nuclear facilities: Fordo, Natanz and Isfahan.
Since then, the true extent of the damage has been unclear.
The IAEA assessment comes after a leaked US intelligence report also concluded that the strikes had probably only set back the programme by months.
Trump retorted furiously to that, declaring that Iran’s nuclear sites were “completely destroyed” and accusing the media of “an attempt to demean one of the most successful military strikes in history”.

After Charlie Kirk’s death, will young people still vote Republican, and could the battle for his legacy cost Donald Trump crucial votes in this year’s midterm elections?
This week marks the start of hearings which will determine whether prosecutors have enough evidence to bring a murder case against Kirk’s alleged killer, Tyler Robinson.
The hearings have once again highlighted Charlie Kirk’s influence on young people and the battle among some Republicans to secure his legacy.
His death remains the subject of conspiracy theories among prominent far-right influencers such as Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens while candidates in this year’s midterm elections have used his endorsement in campaign ads.
But alongside this is also an administration that is increasingly unpopular with young people who voted for Trump in part to deal with cost-of-living pressures and a desire for no more wars.
Can the Republican Party keep hold of the voters that Charlie Kirk helped deliver, and where will they go if they don’t vote for the party?

Jackdaw boss warns of winter fuel shortage risk if North Sea gas field not approved | BBC News
The owners of the Jackdaw gas platform in the North Sea say it is “hyper critical” that the UK government approves production to avoid the risk of domestic supply shortages this winter.
Speaking to BBC News at the field 150 miles east of Aberdeen, Adura chief executive Neil McCulloch said the project was in its final stages and could meet 6% of the UK’s gas from 1 October.
The industry regulator is considering revised applications for production at Jackdaw, and Adura’s Rosebank oil field west of Shetland, after a court ruled that both had been unlawfully approved.
Environmental campaigners say this summer’s deadly and record-breaking heatwaves demonstrate the need to tackle climate change by rejecting both projects.
