Iran has significantly increased its stockpile of uranium enriched to near weapons-grade levels, according to a confidential report by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). As of May 11, Iran's stock of uranium enriched up to 60% purity in uranium hexafluoride (UF6) form has grown by 20.6 kilograms to 142.1 kilograms, an increase of 17% since February. This amount is more than 30 times the limit set by the 2015 nuclear deal. The IAEA's report indicates that Iran now possesses enough highly enriched uranium to potentially produce four nuclear devices if further enriched. Additionally, the total stockpile of enriched uranium has grown by 675.8 kilograms since the last quarterly report, reaching 6,201.3 kilograms. The IAEA has verified that Iran diluted 5.9 kilograms of uranium enriched to up to 60% by mixing it with 12.5 kilograms of uranium enriched to up to 2%, resulting in 18.4 kilograms of uranium enriched to up to 20%. The report raises concerns among UN monitors over Iran's nuclear ambitions and the stalled discussions aimed at improving cooperation with the UN nuclear watchdog. Iran is facing diplomatic censure at a meeting in Vienna on June 3.
