The US and Israel launched an attack on Iran's Natanz uranium-enrichment facility, with no radioactive leaks reported, according to Iranian news agency Tasnim.
The Natanz nuclear facility, built underground, was a key part of Iran's nuclear program before the US struck it in June.
The site houses thousands of centrifuges that enrich uranium for both civilian energy use and potentially for weapons-grade material.
The US military has prepared plans for incursions into Iran, including airlifting troops and equipment to remove buried uranium.
The attack comes as the war between the US-Israel and Iran continues to disrupt the Gulf region and global energy supplies.
