Iran-Israel War: No Radiation Leak After U.S. Attack on Iranian Nuclear Sites, Confirms IAEA

he ongoing Iran-Israel conflict took a dramatic turn after the United States entered the fray, launching a significant strike on Iranian nuclear facilities. In the early hours of Sunday, six U.S. B-2 stealth bombers reportedly targeted three key nuclear sites within Iran. Former U.S. President Donald Trump, commenting on the incident, claimed that the Fordow nuclear facility had been "destroyed."

Following the attacks, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) issued its first official response, confirming that there were no reports of "off-site radiation leaks" from the affected sites. The statement indicates there is currently no radiation risk in the surrounding areas.

Saudi Arabia’s Atomic and Radiological Regulatory Commission also corroborated the IAEA's assessment, stating that no radioactive leaks had been detected after the U.S. assault on Iran’s nuclear infrastructure.

Despite these assurances, the attack has raised serious international concerns. Iran’s Atomic Energy Organization condemned the strike, calling it a "clear violation of international law." However, the agency did not disclose the extent of the damage caused by the bombings.

In a defiant response, the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran reaffirmed its commitment to continuing its nuclear program. "The Atomic Energy Organization of Iran assures the people of Iran that, despite the plots of its enemies, it will not halt the development of this national industry. This mission will continue through the efforts of thousands of revolutionary scientists and experts," the statement read.

The strike by the U.S. has escalated tensions in the region further, with global powers now watching closely amid fears of wider destabilization and long-term consequences for nuclear non-proliferation efforts.
