Iranian Official Accuses US of Launching an Airstrike Near Bushehr Nuclear Power Plant; No Acknowledgment by US
Iranian officials said the strike hit near the Bushehr nuclear plant as U.S. and Iranian forces exchanged attacks that killed at least 14 people, the health ministry said.
- On Thursday, Iranian officials claimed American forces targeted the Bushehr Nuclear Power Plant, located 1,200 kilometers from Tehran, though Washington has not acknowledged the strikes.
- Central Command reported striking 90 Iranian military targets, including air defense and missile storage sites, following 80 strikes on July 7 aimed at degrading Iran's maritime attack capabilities.
- Located 17 kilometers from Bushehr, the site is described as 'Iran's and the Middle East's first nuclear power plant.' The International Atomic Energy Agency confirmed no radiation rise despite previous attacks.
- In retaliation, the Iranian military announced it struck 'key infrastructure and facilities' at United States bases in Kuwait and Bahrain, targeting Arifjan, Ali Al Salem, Juffair, and Sheikh Isa.
- Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi warned that 'radioactive fallout will end life in GCC capitals, not Tehran,' as Iran claims the American military has targeted the plant five times this year.
