The Secretary General of the UN, Antonio Guterres, believes that the damage to the Zaporizhzhia plant could be "suicide", on the other hand, the President of Turkey has also said that no one wants another Chernobyl.

Russia occupied the country on the left bank of the Dnieper River at the start of its war, but this month the two sides have accused each other of continued bombing. Each of them claims that one side or the other is provoking.
