DUBAI, United Arab Emirates -- China will construct two nuclear power reactors in Iran, the Iranian Students' News Agency reported Wednesday, citing comments from the head of the Middle Eastern country's atomic energy organization.

     These mark the first reactors China will build in Iran. Iran now has only the Bushehr nuclear power plant, built with help from Russia in the country's southwest.
