Grossi says Tehran still controls IAEA access to nuclear sites
Summary
• Access by IAEA inspectors to Iran's nuclear facilities remains limited and Tehran continues to determine which sites inspectors can visit, IAEA chief Rafael Grossi said on Friday.
• Iran’s crude exports fell 84% in May from the previous month, Lloyd’s List reported, as US pressure on Tehran’s oil network and shipping disruption intensified.
• President Donald Trump said Thursday he considered sending US special operations forces to retrieve Iran’s highly enriched uranium stockpile, but rejected the idea because the mission would require weeks inside a war zone and risk becoming a “Jimmy Carter” moment.
• Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi dismissed President Donald Trump’s remarks about meeting Mojtaba Khamenei, saying the issue should be viewed “realistically” and “in the real world.”
• The UN nuclear watchdog repeated its calls on Iran to urgently inform the agency of the fate of its enriched uranium since its atomic sites were bombed a year ago and let inspections resume fully.

US rejects Iranian account of Gulf of Oman encounter
US Central Command on Friday rejected an Iranian account of an encounter in the Gulf of Oman, saying Iranian forces did not fire warning shots at US Navy vessels and did not force them to withdraw.
"Iranian forces did NOT attack or fire at US Navy warships," CENTCOM said on X, calling Tehran's account "false." It added that any such action would have been "a gross violation of the ceasefire."
CENTCOM said US forces continued to operate freely in regional waters and were enforcing what it described as an ongoing blockade against Iran.
🚫CLAIM: Iran claims it fired warning shots at U.S. warships in the Gulf of Oman, forcing American vessels to “retreat” toward the Indian Ocean. FALSE.
✅TRUTH: Iranian forces did NOT attack or fire at U.S. Navy warships. Doing so would be a gross violation of the ceasefire.… pic.twitter.com/PdfC1EMZTP

Access by IAEA inspectors to Iran's nuclear facilities remains limited and Tehran continues to determine which sites inspectors can visit, IAEA chief Rafael Grossi said on Friday.

IAEA chief warns of nuclear risks after Barakah drone strike
A drone strike on the UAE's Barakah nuclear power plant last month seriously compromised nuclear safety and highlighted the dangers of attacks on civilian nuclear facilities, IAEA chief Rafael Mariano Grossi said on Friday.
In an opening statement of the agency's Board of Governors, Grossi said he had inspected damage from the May 17 strike, which hit an electrical generator outside the plant's inner security perimeter and temporarily forced Unit 3 to rely on emergency power.
No injuries or radiation release were reported. UAE authorities said drones launched from Iraq targeted the facility. Grossi warned that a direct hit on an operating reactor could cause a major radioactive release affecting areas hundreds of kilometers away.
