Before the June 2025 strikes, the IAEA estimated that Iran possessed about 440kg of uranium enriched to 60%, close to the 90% needed for a nuclear weapon.

The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has not had access to key nuclear facilities in Iran since Israel, joined by the United States, launched a 12-day conflict in June 2025 that included strikes on nuclear sites.
Nuclear facilities have also been hit in the latest war, which erupted on Feb 28, and the IAEA has repeatedly called for access.
