Iran sticks to key limits of nuclear deal - UN watchdog
Iran has stayed within key limits on its nuclear activities imposed by its 2015 deal with six world powers, a report by the UN atomic watchdog showed on Thursday.
Iran’s stock of low-enriched uranium as of August 21 was 88.4kg, well below a 202.8-kg limit, and the level of enrichment did not exceed a 3.67 percent cap, according to the confidential International Atomic Energy Agency report sent to IAEA member states. Iran’s stock of so-called heavy water, a moderator used in a type of reactor that can produce plutonium, stood at 111 tons, below a 130 ton limit agreed by the parties to the deal.

The report said Iran restarted production of heavy water on June 17 after a maintenance shut-down of the plant which started on April 27.
