Report due on IAEA probe into Iran's nuclear activities

A report with details of Iran’s uranium enrichment efforts and information on a secret project that US intelligence has linked to a possible nuclear weapons programme will be issued today to the 35 nations on the board of the UN’s nuclear watchdog.

The confidential report, drawn up for next week’s board meeting of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), will play a significant role in determining how the international community proceeds with its efforts to wrest compromises from Tehran over suspicions it may be seeking to make nuclear weapons.
