Evacuated Russian specialists from the Iranian Bushehr nuclear power plant are set to depart from Yerevan's airport. This was announced by Alexey Likhachov, the General Director of the Rosatom State Corporation, during a working visit to Yekaterinburg.

Additionally, the relevant services of Israel and the United States have been informed about the evacuation of Russian specialists from the Bushehr nuclear power plant.
