Iran asks IAEA to hold emergency meeting over US-Israeli strikes
Iran formally requested an urgent special session of the International Atomic Energy Agency’s Board of Governors, following attacks by the United States and Israel against its nuclear facilities on Saturday.
In a letter from its mission in Vienna, Iran said the strikes constituted a “flagrant violation” of the UN Charter, the IAEA statute and international law protecting safeguarded nuclear facilities. The letter said the attacks followed months of threats from senior US and Israeli officials against Iran’s nuclear program.
Tehran also accused US officials of publicly threatening further military action and urged the IAEA chief to immediately convene a special session so member states could address ongoing attacks.
