Nuclear Crisis in Making: Israel Bombs Iran’s Main Enrichment Site, Leak Rumors Explode-IAEA Explain

Tensions between Israel and Iran have reached a critical point after the Israeli military confirmed a precision strike on Iran’s Natanz nuclear facility—the heart of Tehran’s uranium enrichment program. Shortly after the attack, rumors of a radiation leak at the site flooded social media, sparking panic and speculation across the region. While Iranian authorities remained silent, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has now stepped in, denying any detected radiation leak but warning of "grave consequences" if strikes near nuclear sites continue. #IsraelIran #Natanz #NuclearLeak #IAEA #Radiation #MiddleEastTensions #IsraelStrike #IranNuclear #BreakingNews #Geopolitics #UraniumEnrichment #WorldNews #NuclearCrisis #IAEAReport Also Read Israel Military Issues Apology After Posting Map Incorrectly Showing Kashmir In Pakistan :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israel-military-issues-apology-after-posting-map-incorrectly-showing-kashmir-in-pakistan-4181253.html?ref=DMDesc ‘Gave Iran 60 days, Today Is 61’: Trump Urges Iran To Make Deal 'Before It's Too Late' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/gave-iran-60-days-today-is-61-us-president-trump-urges-iran-to-make-deal-before-its-too-late-4181215.html?ref=DMDesc Israel Strikes Iran's Nuclear Sites, Kills Top Generals; Iran Retaliates With Missile Barrages :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israel-strikes-irans-nuclear-sites-kills-top-generals-iran-retaliates-with-missile-barrages-4181203.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.102~PR.152~GR.125~
