IAEA board passes resolution reporting Iran to UN Security Council

VIENNA, Sept 9 (Reuters) - The U.N. nuclear watchdog's 35-nation board of governors has passed a resolution reporting Iran to the U.N. Security Council for the first time in 20 years for breaching its non-proliferation obligations, diplomats said on Wednesday.

The resolution follows up on a previous one passed on June 12 last year — the day before Israel started bombing Iran's nuclear facilities, soon followed by the United States — that found Iran in "non-compliance" with those obligations. Reporting it to the council for that breach required another resolution.
