UN Nuclear Watchdog: Iran's Nuclear Stockpile Is Now Five Times Over The Nuclear Deal Limit

Daily Mail: Iran's uranium stocks are FIVE TIMES the limit agreed under 2015 deal, UN's nuclear watchdog warns

* The IAEA said Iran's stockpile had more than doubled to 2,250lbs since February
* 2015 deal with world powers allows only a much smaller stockpile of 461lbs
* The UN nuclear watchdog also demanded 'clarifications' over an undeclared site

Iran's stockpile of enriched uranium is five times larger than the limit agreed under its 2015 deal with world powers, the UN's nuclear watchdog warned today.

The International Atomic Energy Agency said that Iran's stockpile had more than doubled from 821lbs (372kg) in November to 2,250lbs (1,021kg) on February 19.

The faltering pact allows Iran only a much smaller stockpile of 461lbs (203kg) but Tehran has been taking a series of steps away from the deal in the last two years.

Enriched uranium can be used to make nuclear weapons, although Iran has always denied that it intends to do so.
