Why It Matters
The Zaporizhzhia nuclear power station is the largest in Europe and has been a focal point of concern due to its location in a conflict zone.
MELITOPOL, June 26. /TASS/. Today's Ukrainian attack on the Zaporozhye nuclear power station caused no casualties, and the damage to an electrical workshop building is not critical, the plant said.
"The damage done is not critical. There are no casualties. Experts are assessing the consequences and will carry out the necessary restoration work. Of particular concern is the fact that the attacked unit is part of the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant.
