Ukraine's President Zelenskiy claims Russia is creating nuclear risks by attacking power supplies to Chernobyl and Zaporizhzhia plants.
(Reuters) -Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said on Wednesday that Russia was trying to create the risk of nuclear incidents and had deliberately staged an attack that cut off power to the decommissioned Chernobyl nuclear power station.
Zelenskiy, writing on the Telegram messaging app, said more than 20 drones had taken part in the attack on a nearby town that cut off power to the defunct Chernobyl station, site of the world's biggest nuclear disaster in 1986.
He also said Moscow was doing nothing to fix the cutoff of external power to the Russian-held Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, now in its eighth day, and was taking advantage of the "weak" position of the International Atomic Energy Agency and its Director General, Rafael Grossi.
