Iran cuts uranium gas stockpile under interim nuclear deal

VIENNA - Iran has reduced its stockpile of low-enriched uranium gas and taken other action to comply with the terms of last year's interim nuclear agreement with world powers, a UN nuclear agency report showed on Monday.

The International Atomic Energy Agency issued a monthly update on the preliminary accord's implementation on the same day as Iran and the six global powers agreed to extend it until end-June after they failed to meet Monday's deadline for a final settlement of a 12-year dispute over Tehran's atomic ambitions.
