Ukraine’s Zaporizhzhia nuclear power station (ZNPP) has been without external electricity for more than 48 hours, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) said, in what has become the longest of the plant’s ten complete losses of off-site power since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine began.
The agency said late on 25 September that the Russia-occupied plant continued to rely on emergency diesel generators to cool its six reactors, all in cold shutdown, and maintain essential safety functions.
