Iran-Life And Fun Under The Shadow Of Nuclear Power Plant

An Iranian couple is standing on a beach in Bushehr, Iran, on April 28, 2024. They are in Iran's first-ever nuclear seaport city of Bushehr, located in Bushehr province on the northern coast of the Persian Gulf, 1090km (677 miles) south of Tehran. In 1975, Iran signed a contract with the German company Siemens to construct the Bushehr nuclear power plant to provide electricity and diversify energy resources. The construction was halted due to the Islamic Revolution in 1979, and Germany refused to continue work because of political sanctions. After years of delay, Iran reached an agreement with Russia in 2004 to complete the project. The Bushehr nuclear power plant became fully operational and connected to the national electricity grid in 2011, after 27 years from the start of construction, marking it as Iran's first and only active nuclear power plant.
