The Russian Embassy in Iran has refuted reports that an evacuation is under way at the diplomatic mission and the Bushehr Nuclear Power Plant (NPP).
"We declare that neither the embassy staff nor the Russian specialists at the Bushehr NPP have any plans to evacuate",
the embassy said.
The statement stressed that both the embassy and the plant are operating normally.
The embassy said the conflicting reports are disinformation and that the source is "well known".
The Bushehr NPP was the first nuclear power plant to operate in Iran, built with Russian participation; commercial operation of its first unit began in 2013.
