Russia Starts Fire in Occupied Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant, Zelenskyy Reports, Video

At around 10 pm (GMT +3), on August 11, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy reported that Russia started a fire on the territory of the occupied Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) in Energodar city, Zaporizhzhia region, Ukraine.

A video taken from Nikopol city shows fire on the territory of the Zaporizhzhia NPP.

“Currently, the radiation indicators are normal. But as long as Russian terrorists retain control over the nuclear plant, the situation is not and cannot be normal. From the first day of the seizure of the Zaporizhzhia NPP, Russia has been using it purely for blackmailing both Ukraine and the whole of Europe and the world,” Zelenskyy wrote.

He added that Ukraine is waiting for the reaction of the world and the IAEA (International Atomic Energy Agency).
