The Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant, a few kilometres from Enerhodar has been attacked.

The Plant spokesman says Russian troops have begun shelling Europe's largest nuclear power station in Ukraine.

Russian forces were battling for control of a crucial energy-producing city in Ukraine’s south and closing in on the country’s largest nuclear power plant.

Russian tanks and infantry on Thursday entered Enerhodar, a city on the Dnieper River that accounts for about one-quarter of Ukraine’s power generation.
