The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) said it believes Israeli air strikes on Iran’s Natanz enrichment site have had “direct impacts” on the facility’s underground centrifuge halls.
The strikes are part of an air campaign Israel launched against its long-time enemy five days ago, targeting Iran’s military and nuclear programme.
This marks the first time the UN’s nuclear watchdog has assessed damage from the strikes in the underground parts of Natanz, which is the main enrichment facility of Iran’s nuclear programme.
