How far could radiation spread if Israel bombs Iran’s nuclear site
If Israel or the U.S. strike Iran’s underground Fordo nuclear site, radiation risk would likely be minimal and localized, experts say. While the uranium-enriching facility isn’t a reactor, a successful strike could release low-level contaminants within a 2–5 km radius. The greater fallout may be geopolitical, not radioactive—raising tensions and legal concerns across the region.
