IAEA Unable to Inspect Iranian Nuclear Sites Following US-Israeli Attacks
Key Facts
1The IAEA stated it cannot inspect Iranian nuclear sites that were targeted by US-Israeli attacks.
2Iran has not allowed inspections at any of the seven attacked sites since the brief June war.
The International Atomic Energy Agency stated it cannot inspect Iranian nuclear sites that were targeted by US-Israeli attacks. The New Arab reported that Iran has not allowed inspections at any of the seven affected sites since the brief war broke out in June 2025, despite being a signatory to the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.
The targeted facilities included the Isfahan Fuel Enrichment Plant, where Tehran cancelled a planned inspectors' visit following the June 13, 2025 attacks. These restrictions follow further strikes launched by the United States and Israel in February 2026, contributing to ongoing geopolitical tensions and a sustained risk premium in global energy markets.
