The accident at the Iranian nuclear facility in Natanz had produced zero risks to Bahrain in terms of harmful radiations, Interior Minister confirmed.
“There is no radiation hazard to people or the environment within the borders of Bahrain or its territorial waters,” said Lieutenant General Sheikh Rashid bin Abdullah Al Khalifa.
The confirmation came as the minister chaired a meeting of the Civil Defence Council to review the outcomes of an accident at the Natanz Iranian nuclear facility.
Earlier, the Public Security Chief chaired an emergency meeting of the National Disaster Management Committee and had directed a panel to study the general preparedness and the formation of a team to review procedures and launch a media plan to enhance public awareness on radiation accidents.
