Nuclear alert in Iran: Iodine distributed to the population

The distribution of iodine tablets has begun among the population in Iran amid concerns over a potential nuclear strike.

TodayPress TV  reports, citing “The Times”, that a representative of Iran’s Ministry of Health said the tablets were being provided to residents living near nuclear facilities as a precautionary measure against radiation exposure.

Meanwhile, an instructional video explaining survival procedures in the event of a radiological emergency is also being circulated in the country.

The concerns are linked to the possibility that the United States could strike the underground “Pickaxe Mountain” complex located near Natanz.
