The United States has attacked Iran’s civilian nuclear
facilities in Isfahan, Natanz, and Fordow, violating international
law and the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons
(NPT),according to Iranian officials. The strikes are expected to
have long-term consequences for the country’s nuclear
infrastructure.
Azernews reports that Iranian Foreign Minister
Abbas Araghchi condemned the attacks in a statement posted on
social media.
“As a permanent member of the UN Security Council, the United
States has flagrantly violated the UN Charter, international legal
norms, and the NPT by targeting Iran’s peaceful nuclear sites. This
morning’s events are alarming and will have far-reaching effects,”
Araghchi stated.
He further emphasized that, under the UN Charter, Iran reserves
the right to defend its sovereignty and national interests through
lawful self-defense.
Earlier, former U.S. President Donald Trump announced that
successful strikes had been carried out on Iran’s nuclear
facilities in Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan.
Subsequently, the administration of Iran’s Qom province
acknowledged that the Fordow nuclear facility had come under
attack.
