The US and Israel struck the Natanz uranium enrichment facility in Iran on Saturday, Iranian state media and the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran claimed.
The AEOI, the government body that runs and oversees the country’s nuclear installations, said no radioactive leakage was subsequently detected in the area. Additionally, no casualties were reported in the alleged incident.
According to the AEOI, the strike targeted the Shahid Ahmadi-Roshan Enrichment Complex in Natanz.
"This is an action in violation of international law," the organization claimed. "Technical assessments indicate that no radioactive material leakage has occurred and there is no danger to residents of the surrounding areas."
IDF says it is not aware of Israeli strike on Natanz
The IDF told The Jerusalem Post that it was not aware of an Israeli strike targeting Natanz.
Later on Saturday, the AEOI called on the International Atomic Energy Agency and the international community to condemn the attack.
"Why don't the International Atomic Energy Agency and the international community take a clear, firm, and international law-based stance on the attack on Iran's peaceful nuclear facilities and the violation of international obligations and laws?" the body wrote on X.
Previously, on Friday, US President Donald Trump asserted in a post to Truth Social that "we are getting very close to meeting our objectives" in the war with Iran. Among those objectives the president listed was "never allowing Iran to get even close to nuclear capability."
An earlier strike against the complex was reported on March 2, during the first days of the operations against the Islamic Republic, according to Iran's ambassador to the UN nuclear watchdog.
"Again they attacked Iran's peaceful, safeguarded nuclear facilities yesterday," Reza Najafi told reporters at a meeting of the International Atomic Energy Agency's 35-nation board of governors at the time.
Israeli jets continue to fly over Iran
The reported strikes on Ntanza come as Israeli aircraft operate in Iranian airspace.
During its latest wave of attacks against Iranian assets in Tehran, the military on Saturday said that an IDF aircraft was targeted by surface-to-air missiles.
"The crew acted in accordance with operational procedures. No damage was caused to the aircraft, and the mission was completed as planned," the IDF said.
