Ukraine In Geporizia Nuclear Power Plant about 50 employees of Russia were in captivity. The head of Ukraine’s state nuclear agency Energotom has given this information. He said that about 50 employees of the Moscow-occupied Zaporizhia Nuclear Power Plant in southern Ukraine were held in Russian captivity.

Some of them were later released, but there are others about which there is no information yet.
Meanwhile, parts of Ukraine’s more villages, towns and two cities were plunged into darkness without electricity on Wednesday as Russia’s continued missile strikes and shelling. Ukrainian officials gave this information. Moscow is attacking its energy installations in a bid to bow down to Kyiv. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky urged Ukrainians to try to save the country’s energy installations ahead of last night’s attacks.
Electricity and water stations were targeted
Enerhodar Mayor Dmitro Orlov said the city’s power and water stations were targeted in the shelling. The southern city is located near the Zaporizhia nuclear power plant, which has been the main target of attacks that have been going on for nearly eight months. The regional governor said a power plant in Kryvyi Rih, located in Ukraine’s south-central region, was badly destroyed by missile strikes. Russia has become extremely aggressive after the attack on the bridge connecting Crimea with the country and has launched a series of attacks on important sites in Ukraine, especially power plants.
Russian airstrikes on Tuesday in Ukraine cut off electricity and water supplies to millions of people. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky described the attacks as part of an expanded Russian military operation intended to plunge the country into darkness and make peace talks impossible.
