> Personnel at the Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant are working to restore external power and keep systems needed for the safe condition of its power units operating steadily while the facility runs on backup diesel generators. The plant lost all external power on August 20, and the IAEA is seeking a local ceasefire zone to speed repairs to the Ferrosplavnaya-1 line.
