Ukraine’s Prime Minister, Denys Shmyhal, announced that Russia has attacked the country’s nuclear energy infrastructure 155 times. The repeated strikes on substations linked to nuclear plants threaten the stability of Ukraine’s power grid, officials say. These attacks create serious risks for nuclear safety, as damage to external power supplies can disrupt cooling systems at reactors. The ongoing hits raise the danger of a potential meltdown, experts warn.
