  "summary": "The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) board of governors has voted to refer Iran to the UN Security Council over its nuclear non-compliance. According to the New Straits Times, the resolution was adopted by 23 votes in favour, three votes against, and eight abstentions. Russia, China, and Niger voted against it.\n\nThe move marks the first time Iran has been referred to the Security Council in 20 years for failing to comply with its nuclear reporting obligations, as reported by multiple outlets. The resolution, submitted by Britain, France, Germany, and the United States, requests the IAEA director general to report Iran to the Security Council and the General Assembly of the United Nations.\n\nIran condemned the resolution, saying it would \"not bring any results.\" The New Straits Times and Free Malaysia Today reported that the IAEA has not had access to key nuclear facilities in Iran since Israel and the US launched a conflict in June 2025 that included strikes on nuclear sites. The IAEA has repeatedly urged access, citing a \"proliferation concern\" due to Iran's lack of information and access.",
