The United Nastions atomic watchdog has reported a spike in fighting near Europe’s largest nuclear power plant in Ukraine, warning about a potential threat to nuclear safety amid escalating hostilities as Ukrainian forces continued pressing their counteroffensive on Saturday.
“Whatever happens in a conflict zone, wherever it may be, everybody would stand to lose from a nuclear accident, and I urge that all necessary precautions must be taken to avoid it happening,” Grossi said.
As Ukrainian forces pressed to expand their gains after recently capturing the village of Robotyne in the Zaporizhzhia region, the U.K. Defense Ministry noted in its latest report that Russia has brought in reinforcements to stymie the Ukrainian advances. The Washington-based Institute for the Study of War noted that the Russian military has made notable changes to its command and control structure to “protect command infrastructure and improve information sharing.”
