Iran is accusing the United States of launching an overnight attack on a nuclear power plant still under construction in the country’s southwest, a claim that has now drawn scrutiny from the United Nations’ nuclear watchdog. So, what exactly is Iran claiming? The Atomic Energy Organization of Iran is claiming that multiple projectiles struck the Darkhovin nuclear power plant site in Khuzestan province. According to the agency, the strike took place at 3:39 a.m. local time. Construction on the plant first began back in 2022.
