1. Uranium Enrichment Levels (IAEA Reports)

• The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has confirmed:
  • Iran is enriching uranium to 60% purity.
  • Weapons-grade uranium is 90% purity.
  • Enriching to 60% has no civilian use — it’s far beyond what’s needed for nuclear energy or medicine.
• As of 2024, Iran had enough enriched uranium stockpile that, if further enriched, could produce at least one nuclear bomb’s worth of fissile material in weeks.

2. Undeclared Nuclear Activities

• IAEA found traces of man-made uranium at undeclared sites (e.g., in Turquzabad and Abadeh).
• Iran has refused full access or delayed inspections at sensitive sites.
• This raises suspicion of hidden nuclear weapons-related work.

3. Past Weapons Design Research (“AMAD Plan”)

• In 2011, the IAEA concluded that Iran had a structured program to develop a nuclear weapon under the “AMAD Plan” before 2003.
• Though halted, elements of that research continued in secret.
• Israel’s 2018 seizure of Iran’s nuclear archive (“Atomic Archive”) from a Tehran warehouse confirmed:
  • Warhead design
  • Weaponization testing
  • Delivery system studies (missiles)

4. Advanced Centrifuge Installation

• Iran is installing and operating advanced centrifuges (IR-6, IR-9) that can enrich uranium faster and more efficiently.
• This shortens the “breakout time” (the time needed to produce a bomb once the decision is made).

5. Reduced Cooperation with IAEA

• Since 2021, Iran has:
  • Turned off surveillance cameras
  • Expelled or restricted IAEA inspectors
  • Stopped complying with the Additional Protocol (which allows snap inspections)
• This has raised serious concerns that Iran could be hiding weaponization efforts.

Summary:

There is no definitive proof that Iran has built or tested a nuclear bomb, but multiple layers of evidence — especially from the IAEA — strongly indicate that Iran is:

• Close to weapons-grade enrichment
• Reviving or maintaining weapons-relevant research
• Deliberately obstructing inspections

This is why Israel, the U.S., and others see Iran’s nuclear activities as a major threat, and why the issue continues to fuel regional tension.

Let me know if you want a timeline of Iran’s nuclear milestones or a breakdown of IAEA language over the years.
