IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi issued an urgent warning this weekend after a fourth projectile strike hit near Iran's Bushehr Nuclear Power Plant. 'Nuclear sites must never be attacked,' he declared, as global tensions spark fears of radioactive catastrophe. 💣☢️
Saturday's strike killed one staff member and damaged buildings housing critical safety equipment, though radiation levels remain stable. Grossi emphasized that even nearby areas of nuclear facilities are off-limits during conflicts, calling for 'maximum military restraint.'
This marks the latest escalation since February 28, when joint Israeli-US operations began targeting Iranian infrastructure. 🌏⚔️ With attacks now occurring weekly, students and young professionals are flooding social media with #ProtectNuclearSites posts.
