> Russian Foreign Ministry Ambassador-at-Large Rodion Miroshnik said the Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant retains sufficient safety margins despite increasingly frequent Ukrainian attacks. He said this should not lead Russia to ease pressure on Ukraine and its sponsors. The plant has been without external power for more than 24 hours after its only operating 330 kV line shut down automatically.
