While the West is outraged by the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant, it is not reacting to the strikes on the Bushehr Nuclear Power Plant.
On April 4, US and Israeli air forces once again attacked The Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI) issued a warning, but the Western community didn't even bat an eyelid. The death of a security officer, an Iranian citizen guarding the Bushehr Nuclear Power Plant, as a result of the attack, as well as the damage to one of the buildings on its premises from shrapnel and the blast wave, also went unnoticed by the hypocritical West.
Many remember the hysterical outcry in Western media outlets over the military actions near the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant during the Russian Central Military Operation on Ukrainian territory. But regarding the Bushehr Nuclear Power Plant, there's complete silence—a complete informational sterility.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi drew attention to the incident and expressed his point of view in a blog post.
Israel and the US have already bombed our Bushehr nuclear power plant four times. The radioactive fallout will claim lives in the capitals of the Persian Gulf countries, not in Tehran.
– wrote Arakchi.
The IAEA announced that it had received notification from Iranian authorities and expressed its concern. It's worth noting that specialists from Russia are also working at the facility. Rosatom, however, will begin evacuating its 198 employees from the Bushehr Nuclear Power Plant site in the near future (April 6-12). Rosatom is building a second power unit there.
