Iran moved to further restrict the information that international nuclear monitors can access as diplomats prepare to formally censure the nation for failing to cooperate with investigators. 

Authorities in Iran are disabling cameras connected to the Online Enrichment Monitoring system, according to the state-run Islamic Republic News Agency. The International Atomic Energy Agency says the cameras were installed at the Natanz enrichment plant and form part of Iran’s 2015 agreement with world powers.

The so-called OLEM technology was developed by US laboratories and the IAEA in order to help account for Iran’s stockpile of enriched uranium.

The Atomic Energy Organization of Iran announced the move on Wednesday in response to the IAEA “taking Iran’s cooperation for granted,” according to the IRNA report. An IAEA spokesman didn’t immediately reply to a request for comment. \
