Iran's atomic energy organisation said that an email server belonging to one of its subsidiaries has been hacked from a foreign country, and that some information has been published online, state media reported on Sunday.
Hacker group Black Reward said in a statement published on Twitter that it had released information relating to Iranian nuclear activities.
The statement released on Saturday declared support for current protesters in Iran, “in the name of Mahsa Amini and for women, life, freedom.”
Nationwide protests sparked by the death of Amini, a 22-year-old Iranian Kurd who died after being detained by morality police for allegedly “inappropriate attire”, have posed one of the boldest challenges to the Iranian regime since protests rocked the country in 2009.
Black Reward said the information released included “management and operational schedules of different parts of Bushehr power plant” and “atomic development contracts and agreements with domestic and foreign partners”.
The atomic energy organisation's general department of public diplomacy and information said “this move was made with the aim of attracting public attention”.
“It should be noted that the content in users' emails contains technical messages and routine and current everyday exchanges,” state media reported.
Talks between world powers and Iran aimed at reviving its 2015 nuclear deal are stalled, with the US saying on October 12 that Tehran had shown little interest in reviving the pact.

Tearful appearance
Chancellor Rachel Reeves set markets on edge as she appeared visibly distraught in parliament on Wednesday.
Legislative setbacks for the government have blown a new hole in the budgetary calculations at a time when the deficit is stubbornly large and the economy is struggling to grow.
She appeared with Keir Starmer on Thursday and the pair embraced, but he had failed to give her his backing as she cried a day earlier.
A spokesman said her upset demeanour was due to a personal matter.

Hili 2: Unesco World Heritage site
The site is part of the Hili archaeological park in Al Ain. Excavations there have proved the existence of the earliest known agricultural communities in modern-day UAE. Some date to the Bronze Age but Hili 2 is an Iron Age site. The Iron Age witnessed the development of the falaj, a network of channels that funnelled water from natural springs in the area. Wells allowed settlements to be established, but falaj meant they could grow and thrive. Unesco, the UN's cultural body, awarded Al Ain's sites - including Hili 2 - world heritage status in 2011. Now the most recent dig at the site has revealed even more about the skilled people that lived and worked there.
