IRAN PERMITS ACCESS OF UN INSPECTORS TO ITS NUCLEAR FACILITIES
- Iran allowed inspectors of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to attend an almost finished heavy water reactor in Arak, and agreed to increase the control of the uranium concentrating complex in Natanz, IAEA representatives anonymously reported on this, since the information is classified. Concentrating Complex, located under the ground at 322 km. south of Tehran, was discovered 6 years ago. Iran has already made three teams of UN inspectors to leave the facility and rejected negotiations on the control. The latest IAEA report states that Natanz had 5,000 centrifuges in June, by 1,000 more than in February and another 2,000 are ready. Most experts believe that by February Iran will have accumulated tons of enriched uranium, enough to create one nuclear bomb in future, ISRA.com reports.
