The head of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has warned that the ongoing conflict involving the U.S., Iran, and Israel could dismantle the global nuclear non-proliferation regime, calling for an urgent return to diplomacy and inspections.
Speaking at the IAEA Board of Governors meeting in Vienna, Grossi said the ongoing attacks on Iran’s nuclear facilities, all involving IAEA member states, could risk the collapse of a system that has safeguarded global security for over 50 years.
Grossi urged the international community to pursue diplomatic solutions, warning that the alternative could lead to "violence and destruction reaching unimaginable levels." He emphasized that the path to de-escalation begins with renewed negotiations and the re-entry of IAEA inspectors into Iran’s nuclear sites.
Grossi also confirmed that U.S. strikes on Iran’s Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan nuclear facilities involved ground-penetrating munitions and cruise missiles. He said initial assessments suggest significant damage, particularly due to the sensitivity of the centrifuges. Despite the strikes, Iran informed the agency that radiation levels at all three sites remain within safe limits.
