Iran: Natanz nuclear plant attacked

The Atomic Energy Organization of Iran said on March 21 that the uranium enrichment facility in Natanz, known as the Martyr Ahmadi-Roshan Enrichment Complex, had been attacked again by the United States and Israel. However, no leaks of radioactive materials were reported.

The organization condemned the attack and said it was "in violation of international laws and obligations, including the International Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons [NPT] and other regulations related to nuclear safety and security."

"Technical investigations and expertise have been carried out regarding the possibility of the spread of radioactive contamination" and "no leakage of radioactive materials has been reported at this complex and residents in the surrounding areas do not face any risk," the statement said.

The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has reacted to this report, saying that Iran notified the organization of the attack on the Natanz nuclear enrichment facility.

The agency wrote in X that there have been no reports of increased radiation levels outside the building, adding that it is investigating the situation.

IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi has reiterated his call for "military restraint to prevent a nuclear accident".

Earlier, the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran said that the uranium enrichment facility in Natanz, known as the "Martyr Ahmadi-Roshan" Enrichment Complex, had been attacked by the US and Israel.

This is at least the second time the Natanz facility has been targeted during the ongoing US-Israeli war with Iran, which began on February 28.

Natanz was hit by US B-2 bombers on July 1, 2025, during Israel's 12-day war with Iran. At the time, US President Donald Trump said the facility was "totally and absolutely" destroyed./ CNA
