On April 4 local time, officials in Iran's Bushehr province said that the area surrounding the Bushehr nuclear power plant had been attacked again, marking the fourth attack since the conflict between the United States, Israel, and Iran.

The official said the attack killed one security guard at the nuclear power plant and damaged an auxiliary building, but did not affect the plant's normal operations.

Iran stated that the attacks violated International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) regulations regarding the safety of nuclear facilities. Further updates are pending.

Iranian Foreign Minister Araqchi warned on social media on the 4th that if the bombing of Iran's Bushehr nuclear power plant by Israel and the United States causes a nuclear leak, neighboring countries closer to the power plant will suffer loss of life.

Araghzi wrote, “Israel and the United States have bombed Iran’s Bushehr nuclear power plant four times. Radioactive fallout will kill the capitals of Gulf Cooperation Council member states without affecting Tehran.”

In another post, Araghchi said that Iran appreciates Pakistan's efforts on the issue and that Iran has never refused to travel to Islamabad to discuss the situation. Iran's focus is on "a solution to permanently end this illegal war imposed on Iran."

The Bushehr nuclear power plant is located outside the southern Iranian city of Bushehr, on the coast of the Persian Gulf, and is the only operating nuclear power plant in Iran.

According to Russian media reports on April 4th, Rosatom CEO Likhachev stated in an interview that following the attack on Iran's Bushehr nuclear power plant, Rosatom's staff at the plant began evacuating by bus to the Iranian-Armenian border, planning to return to Russia by plane from Yerevan, the Armenian capital. The first batch of evacuees totaled 198 people.

Likhachev stated that the attack on the 4th occurred within the protected area near the nuclear power plant, resulting in the death of an Iranian citizen. He said it is currently unclear whether it was an accident or a deliberate attack, but the situation around the nuclear power plant is developing in the worst-case scenario, with the risk of a nuclear accident increasing daily.

On April 4 local time, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova commented on the renewed attack on Iran's Bushehr nuclear power plant, saying that Russia was deeply concerned and strongly condemned the atrocity that caused casualties.

Zakharova stated that Russia noted the deep concern expressed by IAEA Director General Grossi regarding the attack, who emphasized that areas containing nuclear power plants and critical nuclear safety systems must never be targeted by military strikes.

Zakharova stated that Russia condemns such illegal and reckless acts, which expose the attackers' disregard for international norms.

Russia called for a fair assessment of the damage caused by the US-Israeli attacks to the treaty mechanism at the Review Conference of the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, and urged an immediate halt to attacks on Iranian nuclear facilities, including the Bushehr nuclear power plant, to prevent the situation from sliding to a dangerous brink.
