Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Plant Enters Eighth Day on Diesel Power as IAEA Seeks Grid Reconnection

- Zelensky warned that the facility, Europe's largest nuclear plant, is reliant on diesel generators after Russian strikes severed its external power lines, creating a critical situation.
- He accused Russia of obstructing repairs through continued shelling, stating: 'No terrorist in the world has ever dared to do to a nuclear plant what Russia is doing right now.'
- IAEA chief Rafael Grossi mentioned he is in constant contact with both countries to enable a swift restoration of the plant's power supply.
