The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) confirmed that Iran has transferred a cylinder containing uranium hexafluoride for enrichment to the Fordow facility.

Iran Press/Europe: The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) in its statement on Thursday cited the transfer of UF6 gas cylinder as an introduction to enrichment operations but did not comment on enrichment at the Fordow facility.
