UN Sounds Nuclear Alarm Over Iran's Uranium Stockpile
The United Nations nuclear watchdog has issued a stark warning that Iran's enriched uranium stockpile is now sufficient to construct up to ten nuclear bombs. The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) reported that Tehran's uranium enrichment levels have surged well beyond the limits set by the 2015 nuclear deal, raising grave concerns among world powers. This development comes amid heightened tensions in the Gulf region, with Iran issuing a fresh warning to the United States, threatening 'a future without America' in the strategic waterway.

In a statement, Iranian officials warned of severe consequences if Washington continues its military presence in the Gulf. The warning came as Israel's seizure of a Gaza aid flotilla off the coast of Greece drew international condemnation, further complicating the volatile Middle East landscape.
