A fresh wave of coordinated airstrikes by the United States and Israel has hit Iran’s Natanz nuclear enrichment facility, intensifying an already volatile conflict across the Middle East.
Iranian state media confirmed that the site was targeted in the latest assault but insisted there was no radioactive leak or immediate threat to nearby residents.

The facility has reportedly faced repeated attacks since hostilities between the US, Israel and Iran escalated in recent weeks. Authorities have yet to confirm the extent of the damage or any casualties linked to the latest incident.
Trump rules out ceasefire as hostilities intensify
US President Donald Trump has dismissed the possibility of a ceasefire with Iran, signalling a continuation of military operations, Vanguard reported.
“You know you don’t do a ceasefire when you’re literally obliterating the other side,” Trump told reporters.
His remarks come as both US and Israeli forces continue to carry out strikes across Iran and parts of Lebanon.
Airstrikes continue during Eid celebrations and Nowruz
The renewed attacks coincided with major cultural and religious observances in the region, including Eid al-Fitr celebrations and Iran’s New Year festival of Nowruz.
Despite the festive period, millions across the Middle East witnessed continued bombardments, raising concerns over further destabilisation.
Meanwhile, Bahrain has disclosed that a Patriot air defence system was involved in intercepting an Iranian drone over a residential neighbourhood on March 9.
According to government officials, the interception prevented a potential strike and helped save lives, although civilians were reportedly injured during the incident.
The clarification contrasts with earlier claims by the US military, which suggested that an Iranian drone had struck a residential area directly.
Iran accuses US, Israel of targeting civilian vessels
Iran’s military has also accused US and Israeli forces of deliberately attacking private and passenger vessels in the Gulf.
“We warn that if this cowardly aggression is repeated, severe and retaliatory action will be taken,” a spokesperson for Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said.
The accusations come amid heightened tensions in key maritime routes, including the Strait of Hormuz, where fears of further disruptions to global shipping persist.
With strikes reported across multiple countries and growing rhetoric from all sides, analysts warn that the conflict risks expanding into a broader regional confrontation.
The situation remains fluid, with no immediate indication of de-escalation as military activities continue across the Middle East.
