Iran's Bushehr nuclear plant back online: official

TEHRAN, July 5, 2021 (BSS/AFP) - Iran's only nuclear power plant has been
brought back online, its manager said early Monday, after two weeks off-grid
amid conflicting reports over an apparent regular maintenance operation.

   The "technical fault" that shut down the Bushehr plant and its 1,000-
megawatt reactor on Iran's southern coast "was fixed", allowing the plant to
resume power generation and be reconnected, Mahmoud Jafari, who is also
deputy head of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran, told ISNA news agency
around midnight.
