This is one of the sensitive facilities of Iran’s nuclear infrastructure, which came under attack amid the further escalation of the war in the Middle East.
The attack on the facility was previously reported by the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran, and Israel officially claimed responsibility for the strike.
The IAEA clarified that there was no declared nuclear material at the enterprise.
Since the beginning of the current war, Iran has already experienced a series of attacks on its nuclear and strategic facilities. The attack on Khondab became another signal that the confrontation is increasingly entering the sphere of nuclear infrastructure, which has long been considered one of the most dangerous points of possible escalation.
