Iran’s atomic energy organisation has accused the US and Israel of attacking its Bushehr nuclear power plant, saying a projectile had landed within its compound but caused no damage, AFP reports.

“The American-Zionist enemy has attacked the Bushehr nuclear power plant site again,” the organisation said in a statement, adding that “a projectile hit inside the enclosure of the Bushehr power plant”.

“Initial reports indicate this incident did not cause any financial or technical damage, or human casualty, and the various areas of the power plant are unharmed.”
