5.6 Magnitude Earthquake Near Iran Nuclear Plant Kills 7, Injures At Least 30

A 5.6 magnitude earthquake has hit Borazjan, Iran, about 35 miles from the country's sole nuclear power plant, Agence France Presse reports.

Seven people are dead and 30 injured, according to Iran's state news agency.

AFP reports that neighboring countries have often expressed concern about Iran's Russian-built reactor and risk of radioactive leaks if an earthquake hits.

It is so far unclear how this quake will affect the power plant.
