UN IAEA reports Iran to UN Security Council for the first time in 20 years

I suppose good news especially for President Trump and his war on Iran. This seems to be a developing story.

Many Western news media are afflicted with the Trump Derangement Syndrome and report that a mad man is trying to subdue Iran or similar narratives.

This is a strong reminder what this war with Iran is all about! Do want suicidal religious fanatics, who support mass killings of civilians like October 7, to develop nuclear weapons? I don't think so!

Where are the coward European powers when you need them (as a minimum mine sweeping and security escorts for commercial ships)? Issuing resolution is not enough!

Caveat I with Google's help were unable to find the original news release by IAEA.

"The board of the U.N. International Atomic Energy Agency reported Iran to the U.N. Security Council for the first time in 20 years, accusing the country of failing to cooperate with an investigation into uranium traces detected by inspectors at various undeclared sites in Iran. ..."

"... Twenty-three countries on the IAEA’s 35-member board of governors voted for the resolution at IAEA headquarters in Vienna. ...

The diplomatic move has been under consideration since June 2025, when the IAEA board found Iran officially in noncompliance with its nonproliferation obligations because of Tehran’s lack of cooperation in a long-running investigation into uranium traces detected by inspectors at various undeclared sites in Iran. ..."

UN atomic watchdog reports Iran to UN Security Council for the first time in 20 years | Just The News "China, Russia and Niger voted against it, while eight other countries abstained in the closed-door vote."

UN nuclear watchdog board reports Iran to the UN Security Council for the first time in 20 years "The resolution was put forward by the United States, Britain, France and Germany.
Specific punitive measures by the U.N. are unlikely in this case since Iran’s allies Russia and China hold veto power on the U.N. Security Council."

Iran scientist linked to military nuclear program killed in Iran

This is serious stuff! The way this assassination was carried out was a bit too public and too drastic risking the lives of bystanders according to the news reports. I am not sure Israel would have chosen to do it that way. My hunch is that this killing, if it took place, was perhaps ordered by the Iranian regime or an Arab country.

"... the attack happened in Absard, a small city just east of the capital, Tehran. It said witnesses heard the sound of an explosion and then machine gun fire. The attack targeted a car that Fakhrizadeh was in ...
The killing comes just days before the 10-year anniversary of the killing of Iranian nuclear scientist Majid Shahriari, which Tehran also blamed on Israel. ..."

"Between 2010 and 2012, four Iranian nuclear scientists were assassinated (Masoud Alimohammadi, Majid Shahriari, Darioush Rezaeinejad and Mostafa Ahmadi Roshan) while another scientist was wounded in an attempted murder (Fereydoon Abbasi).[1][2] Two of the killings were carried out with magnetic bombs attached to the targets' cars; Darioush Rezaeinejad was shot dead, and Masoud Alimohammadi was killed in a motorcycle-bomb explosion. ..."

Iran scientist linked to military nuclear program killed An Iranian scientist that Israel alleged led the Islamic Republic’s military nuclear program until its disbanding in the early 2000s was killed in a targeted attack that saw gunmen use explosives and machine gun fire Friday, state television said.
Iran’s foreign minister alleged the killing of Mohsen Fakhrizadeh bore “serious indications” of an Israeli role, but did not elaborate.
