Fighting near Europe’s largest nuclear power plant represents “a constant threat to nuclear safety and security,” the International Atomic Energy Agency said in a new report.
Artillery shelling, stressed-out technicians and power supply disruptions increase the chances of catastrophe at the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, Europe’s largest.
