Ukrainians and Russians accuse each other of hitting the Zaporizhia nuclear power plant

Ukrainians and Russians accuse each other of striking the Zaporizhia nuclear power plant, which is in territory controlled by Russian forces.

Notably, Ukrainian nuclear power company Energoatom announced that a high-voltage line at the nuclear plant was hit by Russian shelling on Friday, but that the plant was still operating and no radioactive leak had been detected.

Earlier, the Russian-installed administration of the occupied Ukrainian city of Enerhodar announced that power lines to the nuclear power plant had been cut after a Ukrainian artillery strike.

The Interfax news agency, citing the city’s administration, reported that a fire had broken out at the plant’s premises and that the power supply necessary for the safe operation of the reactors had been cut.
