The Iranian government reported this Saturday (21) that the United States attacked the Natanz nuclear plant. The plant enriches uranium and was attacked in July by the Americans.
Both the Iranian state agency Tasnim and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) stated that there had been no increase in the level of radiation at the site, nor any risk to residents of the region.
The episode is yet another in the serious escalation of US and Israeli attacks on Iran. The war has entered its fourth week, with no prospect of a truce and with more than a thousand dead in Iran alone, including important leaders of the local government.

This Friday (20), Donald Trump exposed, once again, his imperialist vision and contrary to the search for peace. The president said that “we can talk, but I don’t want a ceasefire. You don’t have a ceasefire when you are literally annihilating the other side. That’s not what we want.”
Also this Friday (20), the White House’s main deputy press secretary, Anna Kelly, in a note to AFP, declared that the US could, at any time, eliminate the Iranian island of Kharg, responsible for 90% of the country’s oil exports.
Hours later, the Tasnim agency reported that an anonymous Iranian military source had declared that the US would face a “surprising” reaction from Iran if it carried out the threat of an attack on Kharg island.
