A new International Atomic Energy Agency report detailed the agency's difficulty monitoring Iran's nuclear program, despite promises for better compliance from Iran.

An Iranian military truck carries surface-to-air missiles past a portrait of Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei during a parade on the occasion of the country's annual army day.

"The IAEA Director Generals' reports published on Iran demonstrate once again that Iran is not complying with the requirements of the International community," Israel's U.N. Ambassador Gilad Erdan told CBS News."The most dangerous regime in the world is close to acquiring nuclear weapons capabilities and this grave threat should have been addressed by the Security Council long time ago…We must act before it's too late.

In this picture released by the Iranian Defense Ministry on Thursday, May 25, 2023, Khorramshahr-4 missile is launched at an undisclosed location in Iran.The country's stockpile of uranium enriched up to 20% and 60% also increased over the last report, with the country currently holding 121.6 kilos enriched up to 60%, up from 114.1 in May. Iran had 535.8 kilos of uranium enriched up to 20%, which was up from 470.9 in May.

"While deal defenders and proponents of diplomacy at all costs are sure to point out the slowing enrichment pace and decline in overall stockpile, those numbers don’t fundamentally change the threat. Instead, the most threatening and quickly scalable elements, such as Iran’s production of 60% highly enriched uranium stockpile, actually grew."
