What happened

Well supportedReported by 35 independent outlets

Negotiations concerning Iran's nuclear program are continuing while military action persists in Lebanon. The United States is increasing diplomatic pressure on Tehran through a proposed U.N. resolution demanding that Iran remedy its non-compliance and restore access for International Atomic Energy Agency inspectors. Despite this diplomatic push, the International Atomic Energy Agency Director General confirmed that inspectors are currently locked out of Iran's nuclear sites.
