It looks like there is a fire at a nuclear power plant in Ukraine, and

it looks like Russia has caused it?

I just found this, it looks like it just happened. I don't know much about this...there are some live feeds and other links in the link below.

Apologies if this has already been posted.


EDITED TO INCLUDE A BETTER LINK.

Currently unsure how this will end.

Update: The press service of the Zaporozhye NPP reports that the shelling of one of the largest nuclear facilities in Europe is a worldwide threat.

The workers call on the international community and NATO to respond to the blatant and barbaric actions of the Russian occupiers.

Meltdown at Zaporizhzhia would be "10 times larger" than 1986 Chernobyl nuclear disaster, Dmytro Kuleba tweeted.
