According to a report, the u.n.’s international atomic energy agency (iaea) said a strike on the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant was reckless and a major escalation of the nuclear safety and security dangers facing the plant. Reportedly, the plant which has 6 reactors and is the largest nuclear plant in Europe has been occupied by Russia since 2022. According to the report, the facility which suffered direct hits to the main reactor containment structure has stopped generating power but needs a constant supply of electricity to cool one of its reactors.
Reportedly, last month, the iaea who have a team at Zaporizhzhia said they heard explosions every day for a week. According to the report, they said, for more than two years nuclear safety in Ukraine has been in constant jeopardy.
