Informe de situación - día 184
August 26, 2022 - El presidente Zelenskiy dijo que el mundo evitó por poco un desastre de radiación cuando la planta de energía nuclear de Zaporiyia fue desconectada de la red eléctrica ucraniana debido al bombardeo ruso, acusación que Moscú niega.
Zelenskiy said Russian shelling on Thursday sparked fires in the ash pits of a nearby coal power station that disconnected the reactor complex, Europe's largest such facility, from the power grid. A Russian official said Ukraine was to blame.
Radiation levels nearby remained normal despite the Zaporizhzhia nuclear complex losing its main power supply, local officials reported.
There is growing concern over fighting near the complex, which is the largest nuclear plant in Europe.
