Iran says no radiation detected after US strikes on nuclear sites

Iran’s health ministry says those injured in the US attacks on nuclear facilities have not been exposed to radiation.

Ministry spokesperson Hossein Kermanpour wrote on X that “none of the injured individuals who were transferred to these centres following the American bombardment showed any signs of radioactive contamination”.

He noted that Iran had long prepared for such incidents.

“For years, the ministry of health has set up nuclear emergency units in the nearest medical facilities to nuclear sites,” Kermanpour said.

The ministry did not say how many people were wounded in the strikes.
