The Iranian regime has said it will breach the deal’s limits on its nuclear activities one by one, ratcheting up pressure on parties who still hope to save it. In July, the IAEA said Iran's regime exceeded both a 202.8-kg limit on its enriched uranium stock and its 3.67% cap on the fissile purity to which it is allowed to refine uranium. In a verbal update on July 10, the IAEA said Tehran was enriching uranium to 4.5% purity and had stockpile...
