Iran’s Atomic Energy Organization has reported that a projectile hit the grounds of the Bushehr nuclear power plant, following what it described as continued hostile actions by US and Israeli forces, in a statement published by Iranian news outlets.
The incident, which took place on Tuesday night, caused “no financial or technical damage, and no casualties”, and “no part of the facility” was affected, it said.
The AEOI said the same nuclear power plant was hit on 17 March, with that incident also resulting in no casualties or damage.
It stated that attacks on peaceful nuclear facilities constitute a “clear violation of international regulations regarding the immunity of such centers from military action”, and warned of “dangerous consequences for regional safety, particularly for countries along the Persian Gulf”.
