Recent reports indicate an increase in Russian military activity near Ukraine’s nuclear power facilities, raising international concerns over nuclear safety. Ukrainian energy officials state that numerous missiles and drones have bypassed nuclear sites, potentially threatening the cooling systems necessary to prevent reactor meltdowns. While the Zaporizhzhia plant remains under Russian occupation, active plants in western Ukraine are also facing risks from strikes on the surrounding electrical grid. The International Atomic Energy Agency continues to monitor the situation, warning that any damage to the energy infrastructure supporting these facilities could lead to a catastrophic event.
- Energoatom has reported that over 100 Russian drones and missiles have recently passed near Ukrainian nuclear power sites.
- Military strikes targeting the broader Ukrainian energy grid pose a risk of cutting off the external power required for nuclear plant cooling systems.
- The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has expanded its monitoring missions to include key electrical substations that support nuclear facility operations.
- Ukrainian officials allege that Russian flight paths are being intentionally directed near nuclear plants to complicate air defense efforts.
- The Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant remains a primary concern as it continues to operate under military occupation on the conflict’s frontline.

Wow!
Perhaps they should move their military assets somewhere else.
Oh, 10 km! Much, much better than with the Zaporozhye's. Sleep well.
Humans are so dumb. You know what? Let's build a bunch of nuclear reactors and then have a war around them.
Another reason not to have nuclear power plants. You can blow up solar panels and wind turbines without any danger of a fallout. 😊
Are all voices AI now? Can't pronounce Chernobyl.
Besser jetzt mit hilfe von Schröder Frieden schließen sonst passiert noch was…😮😂😅😢
hit back Russia's nuclear power plants
Yesterday this lying network claimed ukraine was gaining momentum.
Don’t they have an app for this? Why are men activating equipment by hand? Do they have computers😂? It looks like the engine room of a Clingon vessel from the first Star Trek series!
I'm surprised they are still working. I suppose I have to hand it to Russians. I guess, they hoped not to deal with radiation when they took Kyiv. You guys need to invest in SMRs. I read you can turn them off if things go awry.
Boom!🙀! A dangerous consequence!
So talking about Ukrainian attacks on Zaporozhye atctive atomic power plant it's not about DW but some exercises yes😅
That means Putin is not moving there anytime soon.
And the rest of Europe doesn't seem to care! Soooo let's all have a meeting! 😮😅
"Not nuclear facilities. It's a special atomic operation." Russia
I thought Ukraine gave up their nuclear assets to America and thsts why america is obligated to fund their war? Im probably behind on Ukraine news (since forever honestly)
Those are Soviet Union own power plants
If they ever do something like that, let them know you can return the favour on their 11 plants. I don't think they would hit those plants, they have their own and wouldn't risk Ukraine hitting them. Unless they are deliberately escalating to justify use of nuclear weapons.
God bless Russia,, Glory to Russia in jesus mighty name Amen,, salam Aleikum,, wa Aleikum Salam
?? curious) I can see behind the mask. We believe that Dimitri Medwejev of Russia is a GREY, so all of them are ARCTURA including Trump. Why bomb Russia and destroy what they have built up, the Utopia. They are all related like European Royalty, so why fight these wars and gamble everything?
MICHIGAN. What Liz Oyer is getting at may have it origins in London (the Fiefdom). Double tax is illegal.
They want the water resource. The ethnic mob (London) is here in the Detroit area doing tax foreclosures using the water tax racket to steal houses. The ethnic mob has a larger strategy. They want the water resource of the Great Lakes. There is drought in London and the south of Europe (Germany2015). They are smarter than you, so they just snatch the water and farmland.
What's up with these comments?
Also DW, when talking about the strike on the Chornobyl sarcophagus you failed to mention the extensive damage to the structure, insulation, monitoring equipment and equipment used to dismantle the old reactor. Russia's strike on Chernobyl didn't just result in a hole in the roof.
Putin is a Lunatic there is nothing more to say.
Ruzzbots are busy… Can't take the truth… 😂
Oil prices mean nothing when Putin cannot make/ship oil… 🇺🇦💯🇺🇦🇺🇦💯🦢🦢🦢🦢
Ukraine was doing this for years against the Zaporizhe nuclear plant under the noses of the IAEA
