Original Note:
Whilst Russia did strike the area of the Khmelnytskyi nuclear power plant (and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy believes Russia was targeting the plant), the explosion is not from the plant. It is from a nearby power line. The NPP continues to operate normally. https://www.iaea.org/newscenter/pressreleases/update-190-iaea-director-general-statement-on-situation-in-ukraine https://kyivindependent.com/buildings-near-khmelnytskyi-nuclear-power-plant-damaged-in-overnight-attack/ https://www.president.gov.ua/en/news/kozhen-rosijskij-udar-ce-argument-sho-tisku-na-derzhavu-tero-86589
