Iran’s Atomic Energy Organization said Sunday that U.S. forces attacked the under-construction Darkhovin nuclear power plant in the southwestern province of Khuzestan with multiple projectiles.

The agency said the attack occurred at about 3:39 a.m. local time at the nuclear facility in the Darkhovin, also known as Karun, area.

In a statement published on the U.S.-based social media platform X and carried by Iranian state television, the organization said U.S. forces targeted the construction site in what it described as an aggressive act contrary to international law.

“U.S. forces, in an aggressive and brutal act contrary to international law, attacked the under-construction Darkhovin nuclear power plant with several projectiles on Sunday,” the organization said.
