'No release of radioactive material' after Russian attack on Ukrainian nuclear plant says IAEA

Description

IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi says 'security systems of the six reactors at the plant were not affected' and that 'there has been no release of radioactive material' after Russian troops attacked Europe's largest nuclear power plant (the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant), setting part of the Ukrainian facility ablaze in an assault the country's leader branded "nuclear terror" and said could endanger the continent.
