The top inspector for the UN’s nuclear agency has accused Iran of evading attempts to gather information on Tehran’s uranium production at a warehouse flagged by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu last year and where particles were found earlier this year, according to Bloomberg.

The report cites “two officials familiar with the briefing who asked not to be identified” as saying that Massimo Aparo told diplomats in a closed-door meeting yesterday in Austrian capital Vienna that the Islamic Republic is “evading attempts to discover the source of man-made and natural uranium particles detected at a warehouse in Tehran.”
