Iran Slams IAEA Inaction Following Bushehr Nuclear Facility Attack

Iran’s atomic energy chief, Mohammad Eslami, has written to the International Atomic Energy Agency’s director, expressing deep concern that the agency’s failure to take decisive action against recent attacks on the Bushehr nuclear facility has effectively given a green light to further aggression. Eslami pointed out that the Bushehr power plant, Iran’s sole operational nuclear facility, has been targeted four times, with the most recent incident occurring on April 4, resulting in the death of a security personnel and injuries to others. He warned that such attacks pose a significant risk of radioactive material release from an operating reactor, with potentially catastrophic consequences for local populations, the environment, and neighboring countries. Eslami characterized the attacks as a blatant disregard for international law and criticized the agency’s response as inadequate, arguing that mere expressions of concern are insufficient to deter further attacks.
