Iran 'plans to upgrade enrichment equipment'
Iran has told the UN nuclear agency it plans to upgrade uranium enrichment centrifuges at its Natanz plant, reports citing diplomats say.
The move would allow the country to refine uranium at a faster rate, increasing fears among western states about Iran's intentions.
Iran insists its nuclear programme is peaceful in purpose. The US and its allies fear it seeks nuclear weapons.
The plan was set out in a letter to the IAEA dated 23 January, reports said.
