The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has confirmed that two centrifuge production facilities in Iran, located in Karaj and Tehran, have come under attack.
According to the agency, a building at the Tehran site, which was involved in the production and testing of advanced centrifuge rotors, was targeted in the assault. In Karaj, two buildings used for the manufacture of various centrifuge components were reported destroyed.
On Wednesday, the Israeli military claimed responsibility for an airstrike on a centrifuge production site in Tehran. The Israeli Defence Forces stated that the facility was part of an effort by the Iranian regime to increase the speed and volume of uranium enrichment with the aim of producing nuclear weapons.
Iran has not publicly responded to the IAEA report or the Israeli claims. The IAEA did not attribute responsibility for the attacks but continues to monitor developments closely as part of its nuclear safeguards mandate.
