The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) inspected all sites and locations in Iran it needed to visit under the Additional Protocol, IAEA Director General Yukiya Amano said.

"As I stated in my reports to the IAEA Board of Governors, evaluations regarding the absence of undeclared nuclear material and activities for Iran remain ongoing. The Agency continues to evaluate Iran’s declarations under the Additional Protocol and has conducted complementary accesses under the Additional Protocol to all the sites and locations in Iran which it needed to visit," he stressed.

Commenting on the recent claims of Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that Iran had a "secret atomic warehouse," the IAEA chief said that the organization didn't take intelligence presented to it at face value.

"The agency sends inspectors to sites and locations only when needed. The agency uses all safeguards relevant to information available to it but it does not take any information at face value," Sputnik cited Amano as saying.
