A Russian shelling attack has cut power to the confinement structure housing part of Chernobyl nuclear plant, part of which was destroyed in a 1986 nuclear meltdown, Ukraine’s energy ministry said Wednesday.
“As a result of power surges, the New Safe Confinement, a key facility that isolates the destroyed fourth power unit of Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant and prevents the release of radioactive materials into the environment, was left without power,” the ministry said on Telegram.
