Excerpt from a report by the BBC today:
Iran says work will begin in sealed-off areas of the Isfahan plant
Iran has started to break the remaining UN seals placed on its nuclear plant at Isfahan, enabling it to operate fully.
"The removal of seals has begun with the presence of International Atomic Energy Agency inspectors," Iranian official Mohammad Saeedi said.
The move comes as members of the UN's nuclear watchdog hold urgent private talks on Iran's decision to re-start uranium conversion activities.
The IAEA wants to persuade Iran to resume a voluntary suspension.
The organisation's spokeswoman, Melissa Fleming, confirmed the breaking of the seals. "Once the removal is completed we will confirm this to the [IAEA] board," she said.
The IAEA has installed equipment to monitor activities at the plant.
