The head of Iran's Atomic Energy Organization, Mohammad Eslami, threatened that the Islamic Republic would take legal proceedings against the head of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), Rafael Grossi, due to his "idleness," as he put it, while Israel attacks his country's nuclear facilities. In a letter published by the Iranian news agency "Fars," Eslami attacked, saying "you must fulfill your duties as required by law and immediately cease your inaction and condemn these actions by the Zionist regime, which contradict international regulations. Iran will take appropriate legal steps, especially regarding your lack of action."
