No Radioactive Material Leak Recorded at Natanz Enrichment Facility
WANA (Mar 04) – The Atomic Energy Organisation of Iran, referring to technical and expert assessments regarding the possible release of radioactive contamination at the Shahid Ahmadi Roshan Natanz Enrichment Complex, emphasised that—given the preventive measures in place, prior planning, and data recorded by monitoring systems—no leakage of radioactive materials has been detected at the facility
In a statement addressing the attack by the United States and the Israeli regime on the Shahid Ahmadi Roshan Natanz Enrichment Complex (on the afternoon of Sunday, March 1, 2026), the Atomic Energy Organisation described the attack as contrary to international laws and obligations, including the NPT and other regulations related to nuclear safety and security. It stressed that thorough technical and expert evaluations were conducted regarding the possibility of radioactive contamination spreading within the complex.
Accordingly, the organisation informed the honourable people of Iran that, based on the preventive measures taken, prior planning, and data recorded by monitoring systems, no leakage of radioactive materials has been registered at the facility.
The statement further noted that there is no danger to residents in the surrounding areas and that the radiological safety situation remains stable and fully under control.
IAEA: No Risk of Radioactive Release in Iran at This Time
The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) announced that there is currently no risk of radioactive material being released in Iran.
According to the agency, an analysis of the latest available satellite imagery shows no damage to facilities in Iran that contain nuclear materials. As a result, the IAEA stated that there is no immediate threat of radioactive leakage.
However, the agency reported visible damage to two buildings near the Isfahan Nuclear Technology Center. It added that, following earlier reports of damage to entrances at the Natanz Nuclear Facility, no additional impacts have been observed there.
The IAEA further confirmed that no strikes have been recorded at other nuclear sites in Iran, including the Bushehr Nuclear Power Plant.
IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi once again called for maximum restraint to prevent any risk of a radiological incident.
