The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) indicated that there was “no damage” to nuclear installations following the explosions recorded this Friday in central Iran, attributed to Israel.

The United Nations International Atomic Energy Agency, based in Vienna, Austria, continues to appeal on social media to all parties to restrain themselves and reiterates that “no nuclear installation” should be the target of military conflicts.

So far, no Iranian official has directly acknowledged the possibility of damage while the Israeli military has not commented on the explosions.

U.S. officials declined to comment, but U.S. television networks, citing unnamed U.S. officials, said Israel had carried out the attack.

According to the Associated Press, Iran fired air defenses located near an air base and a nuclear facility in the city of Isfahan (central Iran), after ‘drones’ were spotted, which raised fears of a Israeli attack in retaliation for Tehran’s unprecedented attack with drones and missiles last weekend.

The American newspaper New York Times cites unidentified Israeli officials who claim the attack, which occurs on the 85th birthday of Iranian supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

Meanwhile, the US embassy in Israel ordered its employees and family members to limit travel in the country, hours after the explosions recorded in Iran and attributed to Israel.
