Iran's stockpile of enriched uranium has exceeded the limit set by the nuclear deal by 32 times, according to a report by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). The report states that as of October 26, Iran has 182.3 kilograms of uranium enriched up to 60%, just a short step away from weapons-grade levels. Iran had capped its nuclear program in return for sanctions relief under the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), but reportedly returned to the program after the US backed out in 2018. The IAEA did confirm that Iran was starting to prepare to stop increasing its enriched stockpile.
