UN warns of nuclear accident as Russia, Ukraine trade blame over attacks on Europe’s largest nuclear plant

The Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, Europe’s largest, is seen in the background of the shallow Kakhovka Reservoir after the dam collapse, in Energodar, Russian-occupied Ukraine on June 27, 2023. Officials at the Russian-controlled Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant said that the site was attacked Sunday, April 7, 2024, by Ukrainian military drones, including a strike on the dome of the plant’s sixth power unit.

“These reckless attacks must cease immediately,” he told the Security Council. “Though, fortunately, they have not led to a radiological incident this time, they significantly increase the risk…where nuclear safety is already compromised.” Zaporizhzhia sits in Russian-controlled territory in southeastern Ukraine and has six nuclear reactors.

“If it did, it would not continue to forcibly control the plant,” US deputy ambassador Robert Wood told the Security Council, which met at the initiative of the US and Slovenia.“The IAEA’s report does not pinpoint which side is behind the attacks,” Russia’s UN Ambassador Vassily Nebenzia said. “We know full well who it is.”
