"Greenpeace Raises Alarm Over Russia's Plans for Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Reactors"

Greenpeace accuses Russia of posing an unprecedented risk by considering restarting the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power station in Ukraine, which has been on the frontline of the war since its capture by Russian forces. The International Atomic Energy Authority (IAEA) has expressed concerns about the potential restart, citing the active combat zone and prolonged shutdown of the plant. Greenpeace argues that operating a nuclear reactor in such conditions would compromise safety, particularly regarding cooling water availability. Despite IAEA inspections, the plant's situation remains fragile, with limited power lines and reliance on emergency backup generators to prevent overheating.
