mail@newsofbahrain.com

The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) is assessing reports of an overnight attack on the construction site of the planned Darkhovin nuclear power plant in Iran.

According to the agency, the facility remains in the early stages of construction and contained no nuclear material during its most recent inspection, meaning the reported strike is not expected to pose any radiological risk.

IAEA Director General Rafael Mariano Grossi reiterated his call for maximum military restraint in the vicinity of all nuclear-related sites to prevent any potential escalation.

The agency has contacted Iranian authorities regarding the reports and said it will provide further updates as more information becomes available.
