The director of the United Nations’ nuclear agency said on Friday that Iran technically has enough uranium to produce “several” nuclear warheads, as the Iran–Israel conflict entered its seventh day.

Speaking to Fox News, International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) director general Rafael Grossi said that the agency “confirmed that Iran does have, even now, enough material for several warheads,” but suggested that the material may not be used for nuclear weapons.
