Power outages in Tehran and surrounding areas after energy facilities were targeted

Iran’s Energy Ministry announced that the capital Tehran , surrounding areas, and Alborz province experienced power outages on Sunday following attacks targeting electricity sector facilities.

State television quoted the ministry as saying that the electricity had been cut off in these areas, and that it was making efforts to resolve the problem.

US President Donald Trump had previously threatened to strike Iranian energy facilities if Tehran did not agree to negotiate a peace deal, but he has repeatedly extended the deadline set for this purpose.
