TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — Iran’s state-run news agency says international inspectors have closed off two lines of inquiry into Tehran’s nuclear program ahead of a scheduled quarterly report by the United Nations’ nuclear watchdog. The Vienna-based International Atomic Energy Agency, however, did not immediately respond to questions over the report published by Iran’s state-run IRNA news agency. Citing “knowledgeable sources,” IRNA said that the IAEA had closed off its inquiry over the recent discovery of traces of uranium enriched up to 83.7% purity. IRNA reported that the IAEA also had closed off its investigation of traces of man-made uranium found at Marivan, near the city of Abadeh.
