Quake near Iran 'nuclear' plant kills 7, injures 30
2013-11-29
[Al Ahram] A 5.7 magnitude earthquake on the Gulf coast near Iran's sole nuclear power plant killed seven people and injured 30 on Thursday, emergency response chief Hassan Qadami told state media.

"So far, there are seven dead and 30 injured receiving hospital treatment," the official IRNA news agency quoted Qadami as saying.

The quake's epicentre was near Borazjan, around 60 kilometres (35 miles) from Bushehr, where Iran has its Russian-built reactor.

#7  There have been no earthquakes >2.5 magnitude in the Gulf area that occurred in the last couple of days according to usgs, a USA agency that tracks such things. Could be an industrial accident or ahem, an induced "accident."
