Iran-Linked Cyberattack Reportedly Shuts UK Power Plant For Four Days


A reported cyberattack linked to Iran has raised fresh concerns over critical infrastructure security, after a small UK power plant was forced offline for four days. According to reports cited by The Telegraph, the outage did not impact the wider national grid, but may mark a rare case of a successful cyber strike on an energy facility. The incident comes amid a broader wave of suspected Iran-linked cyber activity, including attacks on water systems across multiple U.S. states. Officials have not publicly confirmed attribution, but the episode highlights growing fears of cyber escalation between Tehran and the West.
