> Iran’s nuclear program has entered a critical phase as Tehran considers withdrawing from the Non-Proliferation Treaty. Satellite imagery reportedly shows construction and reconstruction at known nuclear sites. President Masoud Pezeshkian says Iran could dilute its 60% enriched uranium and accept inspections under a comprehensive agreement, while Iranian officials say US and Israeli actions have created grounds for withdrawal. Washington maintains that Iran must never obtain a nuclear weapon.
