Iran Has Enough Uranium for Six Nuclear Weapons, IAEA Warns

Iran’s 60%-level enriched uranium stockpile has increased to 275 kilograms or about one full nuclear weapon’s worth per month since December, International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Director-General Rafael Grossi said on Monday, March 3.  

“We need real answers, [and we need] to stop [just] talking about process,” which might only delay Iran’s efforts to develop its nuclear ambitions, he told the IAEA’s Board of Governors.  

The IAEA has found that Tehran has enough 60%-enriched uranium – which could be quickly converted to the 90% weaponized level – to make six nuclear weapons if it decided to do so.  

This is without even taking into account Iran’s enriched uranium, which has been developed to 20% and lower levels. According to Israeli and some US estimates, Iran could potentially develop an even larger number of nuclear weapons than the IAEA estimates, especially if it made smaller nuclear bombs.  

Iran’s latest spike in uranium enrichment was probably its response to the IAEA condemning it in November 2024 for nuclear violations. (JPost/VFI News)

“Our Heavenly Father, we pray in Yeshua’s name for the destabilization of the Iranian regime especially in regards to its nuclear program, but also its treatment towards its own citizens. We pray that war will be prevented and that Iran’s attempt to unleash nuclear weapons against the Middle East will be stopped. Please protect us. Only You can establish anyone’s plans and we pray that Iran’s nuclear plans will fail. We thank You for who You are and for Your protection Lord. May Your Will always be done.”
