IAEA - International Atomic Energy Agency ⚛️
The IAEA has been informed by Iran that a projectile struck close to the premises of the Bushehr NPP this morning, the fourth such incident in recent weeks. Iran also informed the IAEA that one of the site’s physical protection staff members was killed by a projectile fragment and that a building on site was affected by shockwaves and fragments. No increase in radiation levels was reported. IAEA DG @rafaelmgrossi expresses deep concern about the reported incident and says NPP sites or nearby areas must never be attacked, noting that auxiliary site buildings may contain vital safety equipment. Reiterating call for maximum military restraint to avoid risk of a nuclear accident, DG Grossi again stresses the paramount importance of adhering to the 7 pillars for ensuring nuclear safety and security during a conflict.

Zarif the former Iranian foreign minister puts forward a sweeping peace plan. He may get pilloried inside Iran and who knows whether the US president will understand it. “Iran should offer to place limits on its nuclear program and to reopen the Strait of Hormuz in exchange for an end to all sanctions—a deal Washington wouldn’t take before but might accept now. Iran should also be prepared to accept a mutual nonaggression pact with the United States in which both countries pledge to not strike each other in the future. It could offer economic interactions with the United States, which would be a win for both the American and the Iranian people.” On nuclear he repeats Iran offer made in Geneva to downblend highly enriched uranium stockpile. Proposes “China and Russia, together with the United States, could help establish a fuel enrichment consortium with Iran and interested neighbors in the Persian Gulf, which should then become the sole fuel enrichment facility for West Asia. Iran would transfer all its enriched material and equipment to that space. As another regional component of the peace plan, Bahrain, Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and Yemen—together with permanent members of the Security Council and possibly Egypt, Pakistan, and Turkey—should begin cooperating on a regional security network to ensure nonaggression, cooperation, and freedom of navigation throughout West Asia.”

"Securing Iran's enriched uranium by force would be risky and complex, experts say." Yes, and it could have been secured through smart diplomacy, but Trump and Co. are apparently not capable of smart diplomacy. apnews.com/article/iran-n…
