The IAEA said in an X post that one of the site’s physical protection staff members was killed by a projectile fragment and that a building on site was affected by shock waves and fragments.
“No increase in radiation levels was reported,” the IAEA said.
Iran’s Tasnim news agency said earlier on Saturday the incident did not damage the main parts of the plant and that production was unaffected.
It is the fourth time the facility has been targeted during the war.
Meanwhile, US-Israeli strikes have targeted a petrochemicals hub, wounding five people, Iranian media cited an official as saying.
