(MENAFN- Kuwait News Agency (KUNA)) VIENNA, Nov 20 (KUNA) -- The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) passed Thursday a US-E3 draft resolution demanding Iran to immediately clarify the status of its enriched uranium and the condition of its atomic sites which were attacked by Israel and the US in the recent 12-day war.
The resolution, submitted by the United States, Britain, France, and Germany, was passed during 35-member IAEA Board meeting today with votes 19 in favor, three against (Russia, China, and Niger), and 12 abstentions.
It presses Iran to all IAEA's inspectors immediate access to verify information about its nuclear materials and facilities.
It also urges Iran to act strictly in accordance with the Additional Protocol, which allows for snap inspections, and to resume full cooperation with the IAEA.
It reaffirms that, under the UNSC resolution re-enacted in September 2025, Iran is obliged to suspend all enrichment- and reprocessing-related activities, including research and development and heavy-water projects.
The document further asks the IAEA Director General to submit reports-before each regular quarterly Board meeting-on Iran's implementation of its safeguards agreement under the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, as well as all relevant UN Security Council resolutions.
In a recent report, the IAEA said Iran has not allowed inspectors to access damaged sites or provided a full accounting of uranium enriched up to 60 percent purity. (end)
