Iran-linked hackers are reportedly behind a cyberattack that shut down a UK power plant for four days, according to The Telegraph. The incident is being described as the first successful cyberattack of its kind on British electricity generation. While UK officials said the outage involved a small-scale generator and posed no risk to the wider national grid, the attack has intensified concerns over the growing cyber threat posed by Iran. The incident reportedly coincided with cyberattacks on US water infrastructure and has prompted fresh warnings about the vulnerability of critical infrastructure across the West. Watch
