Part 2/13:
A spokesperson for Iran's Atomic Energy Organization declared that the regime would begin replacing its aging centrifuges with advanced, six-generation models at the underground Fordo site. This upgrade not only increases uranium enrichment capacity but also enhances the efficiency of the process, bringing Iran closer to the brink of weapons-grade levels. The timing of this announcement closely follows a UN vote, which resulted in a resolution declaring Iran non-compliant with its non-proliferation obligations—a move backed by the US, UK, France, and Germany, and opposed notably by Russia, China, and the unusual third opponent, Burkina Faso.
