The Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant is seen on August, 4, outside the Russian-controlled city of Enerhodar in the Zaporizhzhia region, Ukraine. Speaking from Istanbul by video link, Grossi said the situation at Zaporizhzhia had recently been "deteriorating rapidly to the point of being very alarming." "These military actions near to such a large nuclear facility could lead to very serious consequences." The plant — which is the largest nuclear power facility in Europe — was taken over by Russian forces in early March, along with the town of Enerhodar, where the complex is located. She warned the Security Council “the many consequences of this conflict, including the situation at the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, will only end when Russia ends its war.
