“We’re getting dangerously close to a nuclear accident,” IAEA Director General Rafael Mariano Grossi said following multiple attacks against the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant in Ukraine.
The head of the International Atomic Energy Agency said attacks against Europe’s largest nuclear power plant have put the world “dangerously close to a nuclear accident”.
Without attributing blame, IAEA Director General Rafael Mariano Grossi said his agency has been able to confirm three attacks against the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant since 7 April.
“These reckless attacks must cease immediately,” he told the Security Council on Monday. “Though, fortunately, they have not led to a radiological incident this time, they significantly increase the risk … where nuclear safety is already compromised.”
If they keep shelling a nuclear power plant, then it damn well won’t be a nuclear ACCIDENT.
ruzzia is a terrorist state
I read that as IKEA at first
I was about to say the same thing. IKEA going hard lately.
The new IKEA “Rêaktør” ships flat in one single box. Customers can assemble it with the provided hex wrench and models with enriched Uranian start at only $99.99!

It would, IMO, bring NATO into the war.
NATO should have been in this war from the start. This is the same shit we saw at the beginning of WW2.
And I should at that point. I’m strongly opposed to US troops in Ukraine to fight the war.
That said, attacking the power plant is a red line for me. That is an attack on the world.
I figure NATO will declare a humanitarian mission and send troops in. And since it’s a war zone…
NATO will declare a humanitarian mission and send troops in
Do they even bother with that shit anymore?
We’ve got half a dozen humanitarian disasters the world over, from Haiti to Sudan to Myanmar, and NATO seems completely asleep at the switch.
Cause for action. NATO countries surround Ukraine and will get radiation from a melt down. Thier presence gives Russia a political problem. Controlling a nuclear disaster and creating a safe zone is justifcation.
NATO countries surround Ukraine and will get radiation from a melt down.
They’re already eating shit from the refugee crisis, the impact on waterways caused by that dam explosion, and the flood of food exports that have cratered European agricultural markets.
Controlling a nuclear disaster and creating a safe zone is justifcation.
How will NATO soldiers create more of a safe zone than their Ukrainian peers?
Ukrainians had NATO weapons, under the guidance of NATO military specialists, with NATO surveillance, and NATO special forces augmenting their troop base. What secret sauce does a 19-year-old French grunt enjoy that a 26-year-old Ukrainian grunt lacks?
Air support.
What secret sauce? Numbers. NATO has a half million troops. Thelargest air and Navy. Russia don’t want none of that.
NATO has a half million troops.
Ukrainian Defense Ministry statistics say the country’s military had nearly 800,000 troops in October. That doesn’t include National Guard or other units. In total, 1 million Ukrainians are in uniform, including about 300,000 who are serving on front lines.
This, after over two years of continuous conflict.
A new influx of NATO soliders would still be operating under the same failed military strategy. They’d be faced with the same stacked up Russian defense - layer after layer of land mines and bunkers and artillery support - that will eviscerate those 500,000 NATO troops unless they can figure out how to dance between shards of shrapnel.
Russia don’t want none of that.
If NATO states committed their full allotment of troops to the Ukrainian front, that would mean pulling soldiers out of the African and Middle Eastern and East Asia conflict zones. That would mean more Revolutionary Governments joining Niger and Mali and Burkina Faso, more uncontested rocket strikes in the Gulf of Adan, and more opportunities for Chinese naval vessels to encircle Taiwan.
All so Zelensky can… what? Retake Bakhmut? The city that didn’t matter?

Source for what? That attacking a nuclear power plant impacts the world? A meltdown of the rector spreads radioactive material into the atmosphere.
