“Another act of Russian terrorism has created a threat of an accident at the occupied Zaporizhzhia NPP. We demand the immediate implementation of the IAEA resolution and the return of the plant under Ukrainian control. This is the only way to ensure its safe operation,” said Energy Minister Herman Galushchenko.

Power engineers are already working to eliminate the consequences of the shelling to restore power to the plant as soon as possible.
