VIENNA – The International Atomic Energy Agency announced Saturday that it has detected no radiation effects following recent military strikes involving Iran and other Middle Eastern countries, though the organization did not specify whether any Iranian nuclear facilities were hit during the attacks.<\/p>

The UN’s nuclear oversight body posted on social media that it remains vigilant about Middle East developments and is calling for all parties to exercise caution to prevent nuclear safety hazards for regional populations. The agency stated it maintains ongoing communication with nations throughout the area.<\/p>

“The IAEA is closely monitoring developments in the Middle East, and urges restraint to avoid any nuclear safety risks to people in the region,” the organization wrote. “The IAEA is in permanent contact with countries in the region, so far no evidence of any radiological impact.”<\/p>

The statement comes amid escalating tensions involving U.S. and Israeli military operations against Iranian targets, as well as retaliatory actions by Iran in neighboring countries.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
