Russia urges Israel to halt attacks on Iran's Bushehr nuclear plant

Russia has called on Israel to immediately stop airstrikes on Iran's Bushehr nuclear facility, where Russian specialists are present.

According to Reuters, an Israeli military spokesperson said on Thursday that Israel had struck nuclear sites in Bushehr, Isfahan, and Natanz, and continued to target additional facilities. But the official walked back an earlier statement that Israel had struck Iran’s Bushehr nuclear facility and said it had been "a mistake" to include Bushehr. The official confirmed strikes on Natanz, Isfahan, and Arak, but declined to confirm or deny any action against Bushehr, which houses Iran’s only operational nuclear reactor.
