Iran Suspends Nuclear Enrichment; Stuxnet Virus Suspected - Defense/Middle East - Israel News - Israel National News

Iran Suspends Nuclear Enrichment; Stuxnet Virus Suspected - Defense/Middle East - Israel News - Israel National News: "Major technical problems in Iran's nuclear program have forced the temporary shutdown of thousands of centrifuges enriching uranium at Iran's Natanz plant, diplomats told The Associated Press on Monday.

The diplomats said the problems have caused Iranian experts to “briefly power down” the machines they use for enrichment.

The sources said they did not have further details but suspicions focused on the Stuxnet worm, the computer virus which has recently plagued Iran's nuclear program, and is believed by many observers to have been unleashed by the US or Israel."
