VIENNA, June 13, 2025 (BSS/AFP) - The UN nuclear watchdog confirmed Friday that Israeli strikes were targeting an Iranian uranium enrichment site, saying it was "closely monitoring the deeply concerning situation".

"The IAEA is closely monitoring the deeply concerning situation in Iran. Agency can confirm Natanz site among targets," International Atomic Energy Agency head Rafael Grossi said in a post on the agency's X feed, as the IAEA's board of governors meets this week in Vienna.

"The agency is in contact with Iranian authorities regarding radiation levels. We are also in contact with our inspectors in the country," he added.
