Drone hits Chernobyl nuclear plant as Zelensky pushes for air defence in London

A drone struck a fuel storage facility at the decommissioned Chernobyl nuclear power plant in Ukraine on Thursday, just as President Volodymyr Zelensky arrived in London to meet European leaders and demand stronger air defence systems. The attack caused a fire at the site, which was quickly contained. Officials said there was no immediate spike in radiation levels. The incident underscores the vulnerability of critical infrastructure as Ukraine continues to face aerial strikes. Zelensky’s talks in London focus on securing more advanced missile defence technology to protect key sites from future attacks.
