Damage at the Natanz nuclear facility​


CNN obtained radar imagery from a space imaging company, Umbra, which showed that several areas of the facility were damaged in the strikes.​




IAEA chief says Israeli strikes destroyed the above-ground enrichment plant of Iran’s Natanz nuclear facility​

From CNN’s Mitchell McCluskey
Israel’s overnight strikes on Iran destroyed the above-ground pilot fuel enrichment plant of the Natanz nuclear facility, the chief of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), Rafael Grossi, said during a UN Security Council meeting on Friday.

That part of the plant produced uranium enriched up to 60%, Grossi said.

The electricity infrastructure and backup generators were also destroyed, Grossi said. The loss of power may have damaged centrifuges, he added.

Grossi said that there is radiological and chemical contamination inside the Natanz facility, but this contamination can be managed with appropriate measures. Outside of the facility, radioactivity is at a normal level, he said.

He noted that Iranian authorities have informed the IAEA of attacks at the Fordow and Isfahan nuclear facilities, but the UN nuclear watchdog agency does “not have enough information” regarding military activity at those locations.

The IAEA has been in “permanent contact” with the Iran Nuclear Regulatory Authority, Grossi added.

“I have indicated to the respective authorities my readiness to travel at the earliest to assess the situation and ensure safety, security and non-proliferation in Iran,” Grossi said.
