June 19, 2025 Israeli strike hits area near Iran's Khondab nuclear facility
An area near the heavy-water research reactor in Khondab, a key site in Iran's nuclear program, was struck by Israeli forces, according to a report by the Iranian Student News Agency (ISNA) on Thursday.
ISNA said that officials had evacuated the facility before the attack and emphasized that there was no radiation risk.
The reactor, formerly known as Arak, is still under construction. Iran has informed the UN nuclear watchdog that it plans to begin operating the facility next year.
