Azerbaijani radiation experts have been sent to Astara to assess any potential impact from recent developments in Iran, according to the information obtained by APA.
In response to recent military strikes on nuclear facilities in neighboring Iran, Azerbaijan has dispatched specialists to its southern border to conduct thorough radiation monitoring. Experts from the Nuclear Research Department of the Innovation and Digital Development Agency (IDDA) were sent to the Astara region to assess the radiological situation on Azerbaijani territory.
The move comes after reports of significant damage to Iranian nuclear sites, including the Natanz facility, on Friday, June 13, 2025. These events prompted immediate concern and precautionary measures in the region.
According to reports from the Azerbaijan State News Agency (APA), the radiation survey in the border district of Astara has been completed. The team of experts is now expanding its assessments to other regions of the country to ensure a comprehensive understanding of the background radiation levels.
While the specific results of the measurements in Astara have not yet been publicly released by Azerbaijani authorities, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has reported that there has been no increase in radiation levels detected outside the affected facilities in Iran. IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi confirmed that despite the damage, monitoring data indicated that the radiological situation in the surrounding environment remained normal.
Azerbaijan maintains a network of radiation monitoring stations, particularly in its border regions, to ensure the safety of its population and environment. The current deployment of specialists from the IDDA underscores the government's proactive approach to potential cross-border radiological events.
Officials have stated that the monitoring is a precautionary measure to safeguard public health and the environment. Further updates are anticipated as the IDDA completes its analysis of the data collected from Astara and other regions.
