US Strikes on Iran’s Nuclear Sites Trigger Radiation, Chemical Contamination Fears—IAEA Sounds Alarm
U.S. airstrikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities have triggered a new wave of concern, not just geopolitically—but environmentally.
According to a shocking new IAEA report, the use of massive 30,000-pound bunker buster bombs may have caused localized radiation and chemical contamination at Iran’s Fordo and Natanz enrichment sites.

Tensions escalated near the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant as the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) confirmed hearing explosions and spotting rising smoke from a nearby auxiliary facility under reported shelling and drone attack. The plant, Europe’s largest and among the top 10 globally, has been under Russian control since March 2022. The blasts began around 9 a.m. and continued through the afternoon, just 1,200 meters from the main plant.
IAEA Chief Rafael Grossi warned that any military activity near nuclear facilities poses a severe threat to global nuclear safety. Meanwhile, new Greenpeace satellite imagery reveals Russia’s attempt to integrate the Zaporizhzhia plant into its energy grid, laying over 80 km of high-voltage power lines from occupied Mariupol and Berdyansk. This incident adds to growing concerns over the militarization and misuse of critical nuclear infrastructure in the ongoing Ukraine war.

Iran has reaffirmed its unwavering commitment to continuing uranium enrichment as talks with European powers loom in Istanbul on July 25. Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi declared that despite the recent US and Israeli strikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities, the nation’s atomic program remains a symbol of "national pride" and non‑negotiable sovereignty.
Simultaneously, Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi confirmed acceptance of a technical delegation from the IAEA in the coming weeks to discuss future cooperation modalities—but clarified they will not inspect nuclear sites or facilities.
European leaders from the UK, France, and Germany are set to press for an extension or activation of the JCPOA’s "snapback" sanctions mechanism unless Iran makes verifiable concessions, including limiting enriched uranium stockpiles and resuming full cooperation with inspectors. Tehran insists that any renewed US engagement must begin with rebuilding trust and rejecting military covert agendas

Russia, China, and Iran are set to hold high-level trilateral talks to counter renewed EU threats of snapback sanctions over Iran’s nuclear program. Tehran claims the U.S. is not part of any negotiation and rejects new IAEA demands as biased and unlawful. While France, Britain, and Germany warn of penalties unless Iran complies, Moscow and Beijing back Tehran’s call for diplomacy. Separate Iran-EU talks in Istanbul are scheduled, but Iran maintains it will not engage with the U.S., escalating nuclear tensions ahead of a critical month.

Weeks after Trump boasted of obliterating Iran’s nuclear program, a New York Times report raises major doubts. Israeli officials claim parts of Iran’s 60% enriched uranium stockpile survived U.S. airstrikes in June. The uranium, reportedly buried too deep at Isfahan, may remain intact and inaccessible. While the U.S. says centrifuges were likely destroyed, satellite imagery suggests otherwise. With IAEA inspectors blocked, uncertainty looms. Trump’s “Midnight Hammer” may not have delivered a fatal blow, casting doubt on U.S. intelligence and raising fears about Iran’s nuclear future.

Iran has signaled its willingness to resume nuclear diplomacy—but only under strict conditions. Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said renewed talks must include U.S. guarantees that Iranian nuclear sites will not be struck again, following recent Israeli and U.S. airstrikes, including the impactful June 22 bombing campaign. The cancelled June 15 round in Oman collapsed after Tehran deemed the attacks a “declaration of war.” Araghchi told Le Monde that diplomacy must now be rooted in accountability, mutual respect, and concrete assurances. Tehran continues enriching uranium to 60% purity under IAEA oversight, arguing this proves its program’s peaceful goals. Iran also refuses to discuss its ballistic missile capability, calling it defensively crucial. Washington asserts Trump remains committed to peace—though Araghchi dismissed claims of Iran’s program being “obliterated” and hinted at possible compensation for damage. The stakes are high as both sides weigh whether talks can survive past recent military escalations.

Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has raised alarming concerns over “reckless” U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iranian nuclear sites between June 13–25. Speaking at the BRICS Summit in Rio, Araghchi warned of irreparable ecological damage and long-term health risks to millions. He called the joint attacks illegal, citing violations of IAEA safeguards and NPT principles. While the U.S. claims the Isfahan, Natanz, and Fordow sites were destroyed, Iran denies major damage and insists its nuclear program is peaceful.

400 kilograms of enriched uranium—gone. After joint airstrikes by Israel and the U.S. on Iran’s nuclear facilities, the world is left asking: Where is the uranium? Did Iran move it in time? Was it destroyed in the strikes? Or is it now scattered across secret sites, ready for weaponization?
In this video, we break down:
What happened during the June 13 airstrikes
Satellite images and intel reports from Fordow and Isfahan
Why the IAEA is being denied access
Theories behind the uranium’s disappearance
And what this mystery means for global diplomacy, nuclear security, and the next phase of U.S.-Iran tensions.

Iran Nuclear Attack – three words that shook global diplomacy. Operation Midnight Hammer was launched with precision and power, featuring U.S. B-2 bombers striking Iran’s nuclear triangle: Natanz, Fordow, and Isfahan. President Trump called it a historic triumph, even comparing it to Hiroshima. But was the Iran Nuclear Attack really a knockout punch?
Now, intelligence reports challenge that claim — revealing that Iran’s key assets like enriched uranium and centrifuges were possibly moved before the bombs fell. With the Iran Nuclear Attack now in question, the world waits for clarity. Was it symbolic, strategic, or simply overstated?
A Oneindia Analysis.

Trump erupted at a reporter over questions regarding the alleged U.S. strike on Iran’s Fordow nuclear facility. During a heated exchange at a post-NATO press briefing, Trump called the journalist “SCUM” and accused her of spreading misinformation. Hegseth also joined Trump in schooling the reporter, ‘Respect the Pilots’

Trump revealed that Israeli agents who surveyed Iran’s Fordow nuclear facility after a recent strike reported “complete obliteration.” Speaking at a political event, Trump stated, “They have guys that go in there after the hit... and they’re saying it was total obliteration.” The remarks come amid growing speculation over the scale and effectiveness of recent U.S.-Israeli military coordination targeting Iran’s nuclear infrastructure. Fordow, one of Iran’s most fortified and secretive nuclear sites, has long been a flashpoint in the West’s confrontation with Tehran.

Iran's General Gheybpavar Dies Mysteriously, Israel's Hit On 20 Top Commanders Exposed | World News
The Middle East is on high alert as the shadow war between Iran and Israel erupts into open conflict, with Tehran now mourning the loss of a key military figure.
In a major development, prominent Iranian Brigadier General Gholamhossein Gheybpavar has died. While initial reports from Iran's Fars News Agency attribute his death to long-standing chemical injuries from the Iran-Iraq war, the timing raises critical questions. His passing comes in the immediate aftermath of "Operation Rising Lion," a massive, covert Israeli operation on June 13 that has reportedly sparked a full-scale war between the two nations. This operation is said to be the cause of death for nearly 20 other top Iranian commanders, making Gheybpavar's death highly suspicious.
The Israeli Defence Forces (IDF) allegedly targeted critical Iranian infrastructure, including nuclear facilities, missile sites, and military bases across Tehran, Natanz, and Isfahan. The strikes were precise and devastating, with raids in Tabriz, Kermanshah, and Tehran successfully eliminating a significant portion of Iran's senior military leadership. This has created a power vacuum and a crisis within the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).
Brig. Gen. Gheybpavar was a formidable figure in Iran's military establishment, having previously led the powerful Basij paramilitary force and the IRGC's Fajr Corps. His death leaves a significant void, even as Iran scrambles to fill key leadership roles with a new generation of officers. The situation remains tense and unpredictable, with the world watching to see what happens next in the escalating Iran-Israel conflict.
