The international community, long wary of Tehran\u2019s nuclear ambitions, now possesses irrefutable evidence of the mullahs\u2019 relentless pursuit of atomic weapons, pushing the regime into a corner with dwindling options and potentially catastrophic consequences. The findings, presented ahead of a crucial IAEA Board of Governors meeting around June 9, 2025, paint a grim picture of a regime flouting international obligations while desperately trying to conceal the true extent of its illicit program.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The latest IAEA confidential report, dated May 31, 2025, and a separate report sent to member states, deliver a devastating blow to the regime\u2019s facade of a peaceful nuclear program. According to these reports, Iran\u2019s stockpile of uranium enriched to 60% purity\u2014a level perilously close to the 90% weapons-grade threshold\u2014has surged to a staggering 408.6 kilograms.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/english.mojahedin.org\/article\/iaea-expose-on-tehrans-nuclear-program-ignites-global-condemnation-pushes-regime-to-the-brink\/\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Defiant and Unbroken, Evin Prison\u2019s Women Chant Against the Death Penalty<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-331255 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/NCRI-Women-Families-of-Political-Prisoners-May-6-2025.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/NCRI-Women-Families-of-Political-Prisoners-May-6-2025.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/NCRI-Women-Families-of-Political-Prisoners-May-6-2025-150x75.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In the 71st week of the nationwide campaign \u201cNo to Execution Tuesdays,\u201d women political prisoners in the women\u2019s ward of Tehran\u2019s Evin Prison once again raised their voices in protest to express solidarity with the movement.

While France is denouncing, in the name of international law, the illegal treatment inflicted on these two innocent people, Tehran is accusing Paris of using them as political pawns. This refusal to release them is solely due to the blackmail being exerted on France in relation to the People&#8217;s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI), the backbone of the Iranian resistance<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">These two hostages are not only victims of the brutality of a religious dictatorship, but also of a policy of appeasement that several European governments, including France,\u00a0have been pursuing for too long towards this regime.
