IAEA Chief Warns Gulf Nuclear Sites Face Rising Conflict Risk After Barakah Strike

IAEA chief Rafael Grossi warned that attacks near nuclear plants are becoming a dangerous conflict pattern after a drone incident at Abu Dhabi’s Barakah facility. Grossi said the UAE plant returned to service within 12 hours and that the agency lacks enough proof to attribute the attack to Iran. The watchdog chief plans Gulf visits to discuss technical support, nuclear safety and cross-border risks.
