IAEA warns of possible contamination at Iran nuclear site after Israeli air strikes

The head of the UN nuclear watchdog is warning of possible chemical contamination and radiation inside Iran's Natanz nuclear facility.
The International Atomic Energy Agency is holding an urgent meeting in Vienna to discuss the matter.
The watchdog says that possible radiation inside the underground facility can be controlled if properly managed.
There's been several Israeli attacks on Natanz.
The agency says there's no elevated radiation detected off-site.
The IAEA's director general has called on both sides to lower tensions.
