Ukraine’s state-run energy operator warned Saturday that “there are risks of hydrogen leakage and sputtering of radioactive substances” from the country’s Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant as shelling in the Russian-occupied area continues, despite international pleas for a ceasefire.

“As a result of periodic shelling, the infrastructure of the station has been damaged,” Energoatom said in a statement, cautioning that “the fire hazard is high” and that the plant “operates with the risk of violating radiation and fire safety standards.”

          How else do you reply to utter idiocy. That article suggests that Russia occupied all of Ukraine up to Kiev in the initial push which is obvious nonsense, and then from there it says that Russia lost the territory it never captured. No wonder you live in an alternate universe when this is the news you read. 😂

              No, Russia did not capture areas north of Kiev. What they did was run a fixing operation that tied up large amounts of Ukrainian troops allowing Russia to establish control of vast territory in Donbas.
