IAEA Chief Vows Iran Nuclear Inspections

The International Atomic Energy Agency's head, Rafael Grossi, confirmed that inspectors will visit Iranian enrichment sites despite Tehran's denial of any new commitments.

The conflicting statements deepened the dispute over a key pillar of the interim US-Iran peace deal.

Grossi signalled that site visits would go ahead as part of the memorandum of understanding, while a top Iranian negotiator called the deal a 'declaration of US defeat.' The standoff highlights the fragility of the agreement and the challenges of verifying compliance.
