The US and Israel over the weekend carried out two attacks on Iran’s nuclear facility in Natanz, said the chief of the country’s nuclear agency on Monday

“The criminal regimes of the United States and Israel, pursuing their aggression, again targeted the Natanz nuclear site on Sunday afternoon in two brutal attacks,” Mohammad Eslami said in a letter to Rafael Grossi, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) head, reported Iran’s semiofficial ISNA news agency according to Anadolu.

Urging the IAEA to end its inaction in the face of attacks on nuclear facilities as soon as possible, Eslami said that IAEA “must condemn these actions.”

The Middle East is currently engulfed in a major military confrontation amid coordinated US-Israeli strikes on Iran, which killed several top leaders, including Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

Iran has retaliated with missile and drone attacks across the region, striking US military assets and energy facilities in at least eight countries, including the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, and Qatar.

The death toll from Israeli airstrikes on southern Lebanon and the southern suburbs of Beirut rose to 31 and 149 were injured on Monday, the Lebanese Health Ministry said. Earlier this morning, Israeli warplanes struck southern Lebanon and the southern suburbs of Beirut. Hezbollah also said in a statement it launched missiles from southern Lebanon on an Israeli base south of Haifa according to the Jordan News Agency, Petra.

In another report carried by Petra it also stated that the Lebanese Prime Minister’s Office’s Disaster Risk Management Unit announced in its report issued Monday that 52 people have been killed and 154 others injured as a result of ongoing military operations, bringing the total number of casualties amid escalating violence.

The report documented 221 hostile acts in the past 24 hours, exacerbating the humanitarian crisis and further straining the already overburdened healthcare sector.

Official data revealed that approximately 6,000 families have been forced to flee their homes, bringing the total number of officially registered displaced persons to 28,586.

The report also indicated that 168 centers have been opened to receive displaced persons, but noted that only 92 of these centers currently have sufficient capacity, raising concerns about logistical challenges should the influx of displaced people continue.
