‘Sabotage attack’ on Iranian nuclear building foiled
Al JazeeraThe attack was halted ‘before causing any damage to the building’, news agencies said. An Iranian news site close to security services said authorities thwarted a “sabotage attack” on the country’s civilian nuclear programme on Wednesday, without providing further information. Iran’s English-Language Press TV reported “the hostile attempt occurred on early Wednesday, but did not result in any casualties or damage owing to tight security precautions adopted following similar acts of sabotage against Iranian nuclear sites and scientists”. Iran’s Atomic Energy Organization describes the Karaj city facility as a centre founded in 1974 that deals with the improvement of the “quality of soil, water, agricultural and livestock production using nuclear technology”. Wednesday’s incident comes as Tehran and world powers attempt to revive the hobbled 2015 agreement on Iran’s nuclear programme in Vienna talks, which an EU negotiator said on Sunday were moving “closer to a deal”.
