Iran\u2019s lone nuclear power plant was temporarily shut down over an unexplained emergency, according to the authoritarian nation\u2019s state-run media<\/a>.<\/p>\n

An official from government energy company Tavanir said Sunday the Bushehr plant shutdown began on Saturday for repair work that would last \u201cfor three to four days,\u201d possibly causing power outages.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s the first time Iran has reported an emergency shutdown of the plant, which was built with Russian backing as part of a nonproliferation agreement.<\/p>\n

Nuclear officials warned three months ago that US imposed sanctions on Russia, Iran\u2019s nuclear partner, could bring production at the plant to a halt. <\/p>\n

Iran has been unable to procure parts and equipment for the plant since the sanctions took hold in 2018.<\/p>\n

Bushehr is fueled by Russia-produced uranium. It\u2019s monitored by the United Nations\u2019 International Atomic Energy Agency, which did not comment on reports of the shutdown.<\/p>\n

The plant sits near active fault lines and has been previously shaken by temblors, but there has been no significant seismic activity near the port city in recent days.<\/p>\n
