IRAN has denied inspectors access to its nuclear facilities and vowed to continue enriching uranium indefinitely, raising concerns that the Ayatollah could be close to developing a nuclear bomb.

The religious leaders in Iran might have a nuclear weapon in just a “matter of months,” according to the UN’s nuclear agency. This warning comes despite US military strikes that inflicted severe damage, though not complete, on Iran’s facilities.

The International Atomic Energy Agency’s head Rafael Grossi made the bombshell revelation following Donald Trump’s Operation Midnight Hammer.

The Don‘s blitz saw 12 30,000lb bunker busting bombs strike three of Tehran’s nuclear facilities on June 22.

At the time of the attacks, the US President praised them, claiming they “successfully destroyed” their targets, although there were differing opinions on their effectiveness.

Speaking on the state of Iran’s nuclear facilities after Trump’s strikes, Grossi warned: “The capacities they have are there.

“They can have, you know, in a matter of months, I would say, a few cascades of centrifuges spinning and producing enriched uranium, or less than that.”

He added: “But as I said, frankly speaking, one cannot claim that everything has disappeared and there is nothing there.”

And the watchdog head made the explosive claim that Iran still had “industrial and technological capabilities… so if they so wish, they will be able to start doing this again”.

It comes after a leaked preliminary Pentagon assessment found the US strikes only set the nuclear programme back by a few months.

On Wednesday, Iran’s parliament agreed to suspend all cooperation with the IAEA.

The ban means blocking experts from assessing the true extent of the Israeli and US attacks on nuclear facilities.

And it makes it more challenging to locate any highly enriched uranium Iran may possess which could help them make a nuke.

Iran’s ambassador to the UN Amir-Saeid Iravani told CBS: “I think that enrichment will never stop.

“Our cooperation with IAEA will be suspended.”

It comes after Trump told Fox News on Sunday morning that the US bombs on Iran went through enemy nuclear sites “like absolute butter”.

Celebrating his blitz on the mullahs, he said: “It was obliterated like nobody’s ever seen before.

“And that meant the end to their nuclear ambitions at least for a period of time.”

The war in the Middle East lasted just 12 days as it quickly turned into a major conflict when Trump decided to strike the Iranian nuclear sites.

Iran responded to Trump’s intervention by unsuccessfully striking a US army base in Doha, Qatar – before the Ayatollah claimed victory over America and Israel.

But Tehran contradicted Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei by admitting that Operation Midnight Hammer and the joint Israeli attacks did cause “excessive and serious” damage.

Israel struck Iranian nuclear and military sites on June 13, after Tel Aviv claimed Tehran was dangerously close to developing a nuclear weapon.

The US attacks helped to end the war, according to Trump, with both Israel and Iran quickly declaring they had won the fight afterwards.

Tyrant Khamenei, 86, claimed victory over Israel and America despite his country being hammered for almost two weeks.

The Supreme Leader ludicrously claimed Iran had almost crushed Israel and the government in Tel Aviv was on the verge of collapse.

That’s despite the IDF controlling the skies over Tehran, assassinating dozens of top generals and nuclear scientists, and destroying dozens of valuable missile batteries in just 12 days of fighting.

Even with a ceasefire being agreed upon, Trump made it clear he would “absolutely” consider bombing Iran again if it was ever needed.

He told reporters in the White House he would “without question” attack the country if US intelligence pointed towards Iran enriching uranium to concerning levels.

It comes as Iran held a funeral for the commanders wiped out in the war.

The event was severely plagued by “Death to America” chants and the burning of Israeli flags across the day.
