The United Nations has described as suicidal recent
artillery and rocket fire around the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant in central
Ukraine.
The UN Secretary-General, António Guterres, said that “any
attack on nuclear power plants is a suicidal thing.”
Addressing reporters in Tokyo, Japan, according to CNN, the
UN boss added, “I hope that these attacks will end.”
He further called on the International Atomic Energy Agency
(IAEA) to be given access to the plant.
The Zaporizhzhia plant is Europe’s largest and occupies an
extensive site on the river Dnipro.
The nuclear power station was captured by Russian forces in
early March and has continued operating at reduced capacity.
