MOSCOW, March 25 (Reuters) - Russia's state nuclear corporation Rosatom evacuated a further 163 of its staff from Iran's Bushehr nuclear power plant on Wednesday, the state-run RIA news agency reported.
It cited Rosatom chief Alexei Likhachev as saying about 300 of the company's staff remained at Bushehr, but more would be leaving.
Russia built the existing nuclear plant at Bushehr and Rosatom is constructing additional units there, although it has suspended building work since the United States and Israel launched a war with Iran last month.
