Distribution of iodine tablets among citizens around the Zaporizhzhia power plant
The President of the United States and leaders of three European countries discussed the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant in Ukraine and Iran’s nuclear program in a virtual conversation yesterday. Given the serious threats facing the Ukrainian power plant, and the potential for any explosion there to endanger a vast population in Eastern Europe, it is natural for this issue to become a priority for Western officials.
Concerns about this power plant are so significant that iodine tablets have been distributed among citizens in areas surrounding the plant to combat the effects of nuclear radiation.
