Almost all Russian staff pulled from Iran's Bushehr nuclear plant

Russia has withdrawn almost all its staff from Iran's sole nuclear power plant, built and operated with help from Moscow, the head of Russia's atomic energy agency said Monday.

"We began the final rotation at the Bushehr station," Alexei Likhachev said, adding that 108 people were evacuated while just 20 -- top managers and those responsible for equipment safety -- remained at the station.
