In response to Iran's recent missile and drone attack on Israel, the country has temporarily shut down its nuclear facilities citing "security considerations," according to Rafael Grossi, head of the UN's atomic watchdog, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). Grossi expressed concern over the possibility of an Israeli strike on Iranian nuclear sites in retaliation. The closure of the facilities, which are inspected daily by the IAEA, comes amid heightened tensions in the region. This move underscores the delicate balance of power and security concerns between Iran and Israel.
