An apparent blackout in Iran earlier this week may have been caused by the current tension between Iran and Israel. As of now, although Iran is considering re-entering negotiations with the U.S., Israel still thinks even with supervision that Iran's nuclear capabilities can only be held temporarily. This blackout also interestingly enough occured after a string of alleged Israeli attacks on Iranian interests. It should also be duely noted that Iran's nuclear facilities and its scientists at power plants such as Natanz have been targeted repeatedly in the past. With Iran's current quality of life with its economy in ruins, and high tensions internationally, no one is really sure what their next move is gonna be and how significant the result may be.
