The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) inspected the second of two sites in Iran suspected of involvement in the country's pre-2003 nuclear activities, when Iran had a coordinated nuclear weapons program. The IAEA will send environmental samples from the site to a lab to scan for traces of nuclear material. Iran blocked IAEA access to both sites for seven months, only relenting in August.
