The radiation situation in Ukraine remains stable after the attacks on nuclear facilities in Iran. No exceedances of radiation levels have been recorded, and modeling showed that potential contamination does not reach the territory of Ukraine. This was reported during a briefing by Oleg Korikov, head of the State Nuclear Regulatory Inspectorate, as reported by UNN.

First, the state of the environment around the attacked facilities, from the point of view of radiation exposure, has not changed; there are no exceedances of radiation levels. Secondly, we have made a model and relevant calculations regarding the possibility of the spread of products that were in these facilities into the environment and the possible impact on Ukraine. And here I can assure you that the largest long-range radius of contamination of the territory towards Ukraine is the border between Iran and Afghanistan 

- explained the head of the State Atomic Energy Regulatory Body.

Korikov added that currently no "contamination is observed on the territory of Ukraine."

Earlier, UNN wrote that the IAEA also confirmed the absence of increased radiation after US attacks on three Iranian nuclear facilities.
