US institute observes new activity at Iran site

titute has said commercial satellite imagery observed new activity at an Iranian military site, according to Reuters.


The imagery reportedly raises concern that the Islamic state may be “washing” a building the United Nations’ nuclear agency wants to inspect.

Iran dismissed the report, as it has previously rejected allegations about the Parchin complex, where the United Nations’ International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) suspects nuclear weapons-relevant research may have taken place.

“They are joking with our nation,” Foreign Ministry spokesman Ramin Mehmanparast was quoted as saying by the Iranian Students’ News Agency (ISNA). It is not possible to “wash” nuclear activities, he added.

Iran has yet to allow the IAEA to visit the facility southeast of Tehran, despite repeated requests.
