## IAEA concerns
The U.N. nuclear watchdog says it is increasingly concerned by Iran’s refusal to grant access to an underground uranium enrichment facility that Tehran has acknowledged exists.
## Access denied
The IAEA requested access to the site in February, but Iran declined. The request followed U.S. and Israeli missile strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities, including the Isfahan complex, in June 2025.
## Uranium hidden
The IAEA believes some of Iran’s stockpile of highly enriched uranium may have been buried there following the June 2025 strikes.
## Key takeaway

The IAEA says Iran buried some enriched uranium at an underground facility after June 2025 missile strikes.
