Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 61838, member: 636"] Europe's largest nuclear facility enters its fourth consecutive day without electrical power as Ukraine and Russia exchange blame for damaged transmission lines. The Zaporizhzhia plant operates on emergency diesel generators after losing grid connection Tuesday. Officials from both nations accuse each other of attacking infrastructure around the Russian-controlled facility. This represents the longest blackout since Moscow seized the plant during early 2022 fighting. Backup power systems maintain cooling operations at the six-reactor complex along the Dnieper River near Enerhodar. Safety experts warn extended diesel generator use raises accident risks at the strategic facility. The plant previously supplied one-fifth of Ukraine's electricity before the conflict began. International atomic energy officials recently met with Russian leadership about ongoing security threats at the contested nuclear site. [/QUOTE]
