The UN's atomic watchdog said there had been no impact on nuclear safety after a suspected drone attack on a cooling tower
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky accused Russia of lighting the fire, which he said was visible from the Kyiv-held city of Nikopol, which looks out onto the plant. Ukraine’s nuclear power company Energoatom said one of the cooling towers and other equipment were damaged, while Russian state media reported it was a non-functioning tower.
Russia’s nuclear energy company Rosatom said the main fire was extinguished shortly before midnight on Sunday, according to state media. In a statement posted on X, the IAEA said there had been no reported impact on nuclear safety at the site.
