Russia’s state nuclear company Rosatom evacuated a further 198 of its staff from Iran’s Bushehr nuclear power plant on Saturday, Russian news agencies reported. Rosatom has been evacuating staff from the plant since the Iran war broke out at the end of February. Saturday’s evacuations had been planned before the International Atomic Energy Agency said in a post on X on Saturday that one of the plant’s physical protection staff was killed by a projectile fragment and that a building on site was affected by shockwaves and fragments.
