IAEA Probes Reported Attack on Iran's Darkhovin Nuclear Plant Site, Says No Radiological Risk
The IAEA said it is investigating reports of an overnight attack on the construction site of Iran's planned Darkhovin nuclear power plant, adding that the facility was in the very early stages of construction and contained no nuclear material when it was last visited. The agency said the reported attack is not believed to pose any radiological risk.
The IAEA said it had contacted Iran about the reports and would provide more information as it became available. Iran said the United States carried out the attack, with Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi calling it a strike on peaceful infrastructure and saying Tehran would take appropriate action, while Russia urged the IAEA to take immediate and concrete steps and condemned attacks on nuclear sites.
