Russia started a planned evacuation of 198 workers from Iran’s Bushehr atomic plant shortly after a US-Israeli projectile hit near the facility, AFP reports citing Russian state media.
“As planned, we began the main phase of the evacuation today. About 20 minutes after that ill-fated strike, buses set off from Bushehr station towards the Iranian-Armenian border [with] 198 people, to be precise — this is the largest evacuation,” Russian nuclear agency Rosatom’s chief Alexey Likhachev was quoted as saying by TASS news agency.
