VIENNA, March 18 — The UN nuclear watchdog said Wednesday that Iranian authorities had reported projectile impact at the country’s only operational nuclear power plant that caused no damage.<\/p>\n

The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) “has been informed by Iran that a projectile hit the premises of the Bushehr NPP on Tuesday evening”, the Vienna-based agency posted on social media. “No damage to the plant or injuries to staff reported.”<\/p>\n

Agency head Rafael Grossi “reiterates his call for restraint during the conflict to avoid any risk of a nuclear accident”, the statement said.<\/p>\n

The Bushehr plant in southwestern Iran has the Islamic republic’s only operational nuclear power reactor and was first connected to the grid in 2011, according to the IAEA.<\/p>\n

Tehran has been under biting US sanctions since 2018, when Washington withdrew from a deal that granted Iran sanctions relief in return for curbs on its nuclear activities designed to prevent it from developing an atomic warhead.<\/p>\n

Iran has always denied any ambition to develop nuclear weapons, insisting that its activities are entirely peaceful. — AFP<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
