Iran exceeded the uranium enrichment limit 18 times

Citing the IAEA report, the AFP agency reported on February 28 that the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has found that Iran has 18 times more enriched uranium than the nuclear deal allows. 

According to the agency, the total amount of enriched uranium in Iran is currently 3.76 tons, instead of the maximum permissible figure of 202.8 kg. IAEA inspectors also found uranium particles at Iran's nuclear facility enriched to a record 83.7%, nearly enough to make a nuclear bomb. Nuclear weapons require 90% enrichment.
