VIENNA (Reuters) - Iran has still not granted U.N. nuclear inspectors access to re-install surveillance cameras at its TESA Karaj centrifuge-parts workshop, a step "essential" to reviving Iran's nuclear deal, an International Atomic Energy Agency report said on Wednesday.

With indirect talks between the United States and Iran on reviving the nuclear deal, known as the JCPOA, due to resume on Nov. 29, the IAEA said its inability to re-install the cameras hindered its task of monitoring Iran's nuclear activities.
