IAEA withdraws inspectors from Iran over security concerns

(Web Desk): The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has withdrawn its inspectors from Iran due to security concerns.

According to the IAEA, the last team of inspectors safely arrived today at the agency’s headquarters in Vienna from Iran.

IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi reiterated the importance of resuming monitoring and verification activities at Iran's nuclear facilities as soon as possible.

It is worth noting that two days ago, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian enforced a law to end cooperation with the IAEA.

Previously, the Iranian Parliament had passed a bill to suspend cooperation with the IAEA following the agency’s stance during the Iran-Israel conflict. The bill was also approved by Iran’s Supreme Council.
