Iran says it has removed core from Arak reactor in key nuclear deal step | 14 Jan 2016 | Iran has removed the sensitive core of its Arak nuclear reactor and U.N. inspectors will visit the site on Thursday to verify the move crucial to the implementation of Tehran's atomic agreement with major powers, state television said on Thursday. Removal of the core from the Arak reactor will largely eliminate its ability to yield nuclear bomb-grade plutonium, and was one of the toughest issues to resolve in the long nuclear negotiations with the six powers. “The core vessel of the Arak reactor has been removed…and IAEA inspectors will visit the site to verify it and report it to the IAEA,” spokesman for Iran's Atomic Energy Organisation Behrouz Kamalvandi said.
