Issue of attack on Iran’s nuclear plant

The issue of attack on Iran’s nuclear plant has been a major topic of international politics for the last several years. Many nuclear sites of Iran have been targeted in recent years. Major nuclear centers of Iran include Natanz Nuclear Facility, Fordow Fuel Enrichment Plant and Isfahan Nuclear Technology Center. In June 2025, during the tension between Israel and Iran, Israel carried out massive air strikes on several nuclear and military targets of Iran. Iran claimed that some of its nuclear sites were damaged, while Israel said that the aim was to weaken Iran’s nuclear capability. After this, America also took military action on some nuclear plants. The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) said at the time that some nuclear sites had been damaged, but there were no immediate signs of large-scale radiation leakage.

Iran nuclear program: International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Director General Rafael Gersi has given a major warning during the Iran tour. He said that Iran is now just one step away from making nuclear weapons. Groxy described Iran’s nuclear program as “Jigsaw Puzzle”. That is, now it is late to add pieces.

According to Rafael GRAI, Iran has a high capacity of uranium enrichment. He has developed centerfuse technology. Iran also has a technical knowledge of nuclear weapons design. After all this, they now only need to work on it.

America worried about nuclear program
The US is seriously concerned about Iran’s nuclear progress. US President Donald Trump has already been out of the 2015 nuclear deal and he is preparing to impose a new ban on Iran. However, if Iran makes nuclear weapons, the arms race can begin in the middle East. Countries like Israel, Saudi Arabia, UAE will be highly cautious about their safety. Global oil market, peace talks and energy supply will be affected. According to the US, nuclear -rich Iran is not only a country, but a crisis.

Saudi Arabia’s strict warning
Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman has clearly stated that we do not want nuclear weapons, but if Iran made a bomb, we will not be behind. Saudi Arabia feels that if Iran is successful in the nuclear program, it will try to establish political and military dominance. This can completely spoil the balance of power of the middle East.

IAEA’s statement about nuclear diplomacy
IAEA Director General Rafael Gossi said on nuclear diplomacy that if there is any nuclear agreement with Iran in future, then IAAA’s participation in it will be necessary. That agreement will not be considered valid without this. It is a clear message from IAEA that secret nuclear activities, absence of monitoring, and political bargaining will no longer be acceptable to the world community.
