Fresh controversy has erupted around the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) as Iranian hardliners accuse Director General Rafael Grossi of helping Israel gather intelligence on Iran’s nuclear facilities. Reports surrounding the proposed return of IAEA inspectors have fueled political tensions, with Tehran insisting expanded inspections can only begin after a comprehensive U.S.-Iran agreement is finalized. Iranian media claims current inspection access will remain restricted while negotiations continue. The allegations have intensified mistrust between Tehran and the West, raising new questions about nuclear transparency, regional security, and the future of the ongoing U.S.-Iran diplomatic process.
