The Ukrainian state nuclear energy company "Energoatom" has warned of a high risk of radiation leakage from the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant due to Russian artillery shelling. Russia sent a letter to the UN Security Council with evidence of the shelling of the NPP on August 25 by Ukrainian forces, the permanent representation of the Russian Federation at the UN announced on Facebook. "Three shells exploded not far from special building No. 2, where the storage for nuclear fuel and solid radioactive waste is located," they note from there.
The Ukrainian army has stopped the advance of Russian forces towards Slavyansk, Bakhmut and Avdeevka, but the threat of Russia's use of Kalibr cruise missiles against infrastructure sites remains, UNIAN reports, citing the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The US has said it continues to support Ukraine. They will emphasize the delivery of weapons to Ukraine by sea instead of air, which will allow a greater amount of weapons to be delivered to the Ukrainian army, writes The Washington Post.
