Israel Says IAEA Is Failing to Inspect Iranian Nuclear Military Research Facilities

(Ha'aretz) Barak Ravid - In 2016, a few months after the nuclear agreement with Iran went into effect, a Western entity gave the International Atomic Energy Agency information regarding sites that Iran did not report as part of its nuclear program and where forbidden nuclear military research and development activity was being conducted, Israeli officials involved in the issue told Ha'aretz. Almost all the sites have not been visited by IAEA inspectors - either because of Iran's refusal to grant entry or UN officials' reluctance to confront Iran on the issue. "There is a whole list of suspicious sites where the Iranians do not allow inspectors to visit and no one enforces the supervision mechanisms established in the nuclear agreement. There is simply a demonstration of weakness in the IAEA when it comes to Iran....When it comes to visits to suspicious sites, the agreement is not implemented."
