Tehran, June 22, 2025 – Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has accused the US of violating the UN Charter and international agreements with its bombing attacks on nuclear sites in his country.
Iran’s National Nuclear Safety System Center has also issued a statement saying that no radiation had been released to the environment through the attacks.
Authorities in Iran said Sunday there are “no signs of contamination” after the US attacks on the country’s key nuclear sites in Isfahan, Fordo and Natanz.
“No signs of contamination have been recorded,” said Iran’s National Centre for the Nuclear Safety System, which operates under Iran’s Atomic Energy Organization.
“There is therefore no danger for the inhabitants living around the aforementioned sites.”
The attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities marks a significant shift for US President Donald Trump, who came to office promising he would keep the US out of foreign wars and often criticized military interventions.
Trump’s decision to attack Iran has stirred a storm across the US political spectrum.
The US strikes in Iran are a “dangerous escalation in a region already on the edge,” and urged for de-escalation in a statement.
“There is a growing risk that this conflict could rapidly get out of control – with catastrophic consequences for civilians, the region, and the world,” Guterres said.
“At this perilous hour, it is critical to avoid a spiral of chaos,” Guterres said in his statement. “There is no military solution. The only path forward is diplomacy. The only hope is peace.”
President Donald Trump said the strikes carried out in three Iranian nuclear sites resulted in them being “completely and totally obliterated,” labeling the operation a “spectacular military success.”
Trump concluded his speech by threatening Iran should it not return to the negotiation table.
“There will be either peace, or there will be tragedy for Iran,” Trump said, adding that the US “will go for other targets” should that not be the case.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu thanked US President Donald Trump for carrying out strikes on three nuclear sites in Iran.
According to Netanyahu, Trump’s decision “will change history,” with the US doing “what no other country on earth could do.”
“History will record that President Trump acted to deny the world’s most dangerous regime the world’s most dangerous weapons,” Netanyahu said, concluding his message by saying that “the forces of civilization” thank Trump for his decision.
