The UN nuclear watchdog, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA)’s 35-nation Board of Governors declared Iran in breach of its non-proliferation obligations on Thursday, June 12th, for the first time in almost 20 years, raising the prospect of reporting it to the UN Security Council.
Israel on Thursday urged the international community to “respond decisively” to the IAEA report and prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons..
“Iran has consistently obstructed IAEA’s verification and monitoring, it removed inspectors, and it sanitised and concealed suspected undeclared locations in Iran,” Israel’s foreign ministry said on X.
“These actions undermine the global non-proliferation regime and pose an imminent threat to regional and international security and stability,” the ministry statement added.
