The United Nations' top nuclear watchdog, IAEA Director-General Rafael Grossi, told CBS News that Iran still has the technical ability to restart its nuclear program, even though U.S. military strikes dented the program.
In an interview with "Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan," Rafael Grossi, director general of the International Atomic Energy Agency, said there had already been damage done to Iran's nuclear sites.
The head of the U.N. nuclear watchdog agency says Iran's enriched uranium "is still there," as he stresses the urgency of diplomacy to avert a U.S.-Iran war.
"We will continue permanently monitoring the situation there in order to help prevent a nuclear accident," the IAEA chief said at the Zaporizhzhia plant.
