Tehran, UN atomic inspector killed in car accident
Slovak official also injured. The car overturned just ahead of inspection of Khondab nuclear site. Israeli threats increase the price of oil to 126 dollars per barrel. Expectations ahead of meeting between Tehran and world powers in Istanbul on 23 May.

Tehran South Korean official of the UN Atomic Energy Agency (Aieia) was killed in a car accident in Iran, just as he prepared to visit the Khondab nuclear plant in the city of Arak, Markazi province, west of the country.

The car carrying two people, overturned, killing inspector Seo Ok-seok, 58. The other official of Slovak nationality was injured and taken to hospital.

The IAEA inspector's death - according to a statement from the Korean Ministry of Foreign Affairs - took place at about 11 am today (local time).

The incident came just days after a meeting in Vienna between representatives of the IAEA and Iran. After more than a year of deadlock, Tehran has allowed the inspection of its nuclear sites, which according to many among the international community, is aimed at producing atomic weapons. Iran has always denied this accusation and says that his sites are only for peaceful purposes.

For years, Israel - in collaboration with the United States - has been threatening air strikes against Iranian nuclear sites. According to experts, what hampers Israel is a technical problem: the Iranian sites are over 100 meters deep underground and the bombs that Israel uses can not penetrate into the depths.

The threats of air strikes have decisive influence on oil prices, which in March rose to 126 US dollars per barrel. After Tehran's decision to resume dialogue on its nuclear power, the price has gone down, in expectation of a new meeting between Tehran and some world powers (U.S., Russia, France, Great Britain, China, Germany), May 23 in Istanbul. Today, Brent crude for June was sold at 111.40 dollars a barrel.
