For a while now Russia has held the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant, but with fighting there intensifying some are concerns about the impact of… well fighting inside a nuclear power station (because that certainly sounds like a bad idea)

Usual Tish as ever. As you say Russia has been in control of this nuclear power station since March without problem . Russia is Not shelling itself !! Russia has been inviting the IAEA to visit daily to the nuclear plant here for the last three weeks without luck. However the IAEA is reticent to do this because of pressure from the USA. If the IAEA visit they will have to admit what we in the West refuse to say … It is Ukraine Shelling and Sending Missiles towards the Nuclear plant to cause Chaos & a disaster scorched earth style and then of course the western media would say it was Russia that did it and western media and TLDR would lap this up and repeat it ad infinitum.
Ukraines army is being neautralised in the Donbass; Pinsky was taken last week; this wasn't in the press. Just the news that some weapons dumps and airfields had been hit by sabotage drones. As usual we are only told in the west about highlighted successes of little overall consequences to the war. We are not informed that there will be no Kherson offensive, we are not told about the Russian advances in Pisky or outside Kharkov. Like Afghanistan; in months to come our press & TV will suddenly reveal that Ukraine is imploding and the Ukraine war is lost to Russia….
When will we learn in the UK , Europe & the USA that our leadership constantly lies outrageously to us….. Yet still most of Joe public believes the Tish that is fed to us daily…..
Shame on TLDR for not doing proper investigative journalism
. The information is out there on the web if you look for it. On many subjects TLDR does well but the Ukraine "news & objectivity" simply does not exist.

False reportage.
If Russia controls the power plant, if Russia is at the power plant, then what is the point of the Russian army to shoot everything themselves.
Regarding ammunition, ammunition depots on the territory of the power plant, this is nonsense, it's the same if you start smoking at the gas station of cars.
Explain why Russia still supplies Ukraine with electricity, why Russia still pumps gas through Ukraine and pays money…………………..
@BruceDuncan
February 21, 2024 at 8:20 pm
It's not really fair to call Chernobyl a BWR. The BWR is a water-moderated reactor, which means that when you boil the coolant the reactivity goes down. The RBMK (like Chernobyl) is a unique design and is a graphite-moderated reactor, which means that when you boil the water in certain circumstances the reactivity goes up. This is one of the factors which directly led to the accident.

Consider for a moment that a certain most powerful country in Europe is currently considering cancelling it's plans to decommission it's six remaining nuclear powerplants, to not further exacerbate it's reliance on Russian gas. A reliance that formed mainly due to the previous closure of fourteen of it's nuclear powerplants since 2011… The choice of decommissioning these powerplants originally motivated by a fear of nuclear energy…. You might say that the Russians have certain financial interests in causing a nuclear disaster in Ukraine. Putin perhaps hoping to stoke fears of nuclear energy in order to dissuade western Europe from trying to escape it's dependance on Russian gas by turning to nuclear. I know that sounds awful and farfetched. But then again, that's what this whole military conflict has been like thus far.

@BladeTheWatcher
February 21, 2024 at 8:20 pm
Oh, stop panicking.
First, the Russians "only" exploit the plant as a "safe house", storing their ammunition, weapons, and soldiers there because they know Ukraine won't just target it with Himars. They have no intention whatsoever to use it to contaminate the area, or cause a meltdown. The reason is simple – they have thousands of nuclear weapons which can do the same faster, simpler, and with a more reliable, greater effect.
Second, a nuclear power plant won't explode. The worst that can happen is that the core melts together, it will ignite the whole structure, and the contaminated smoke will carry radiation causing secondary radiation poisoning. Even this is unlikely, as there are failsafes in place – they will just flood the whole block in case of a meltdown, which slows the reaction and prevents contamination of the air.
Third, causing any damage to the core itself is very hard. The whole core is housed behind meters of concrete, steel, and lead. The structures are massive, a single shell or missile is not likely to reach the core. If you ignite a whole ammo dump next to it, yeah, that can be dangerous. Even with that, the reactor can be stopped, the rods removed, so no meltdown can occur even if the reactor block is completely destroyed. Of course the Russians won't do it – as it would remove their "Himars immunity".
There is a lot of fear around nuclear energy. It is mostly unfounded, the technology is pretty harmless compared to, let's say, a war. In Chernobyl 30 people died of the meltdown. In this war, 30 Ukrainian soldiers are dying per DAY. Russian numbers are likely higher.
@mikez2779
February 21, 2024 at 8:20 pm
nice picture of a burning oil refinery while you talk about fukushima nuclear plant…
Water at the cooling pond is not radioactive – a closer look at the picture should be enough to notice this pond is connected to Dnipro River, which in turn flows to the Black Sea.
not to even say a claim a highly contaminated pool would be just sitting there in the open, where any kind of flood would just wash all these contaminations away, is plain stupid…
and nice scaremongering with all those mushroom clouds – it's not possible for low enriched uranium to become supercritical and explode.
You want nuclear explosion, you need uranium that is 90+% enriched. 2-3% enrichment in nuclear fuel won't ever be enough.
