The forth part of 20 percent-enriched uranium was loaded to 5 megawatt-thermal Tehran's Research Reactor (TRR), The head of the Iranian Atomic Energy Organization Fereydoun Abbasi Davani said.
According to IRNA report, Abbasi added that Iran's 20 percent-refined uranium stockpile is a little more than what IAEA reported earlier.

Abbasi said that Iran would continue to enrich more 20 percent-refined uranium under supervision of IAEA.
Iran succeeded in loading the first batch of its home-made uranium rods into the Tehran research reactor in February 2012.
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad unveiled that his country succeeded in producing domestically 20-percent enriched nuclear fuel for Tehran's research reactor.
