Potential Nuclear Radiation in Eastern Europe
With confirmation from Ukrainian and Russian officials, the Zaporizhzhia power plant, the largest nuclear power plant in Europe, initially lost the core of one of its most important reactors and subsequently shut down according to the latest official announcement.
The entire focus of the International Atomic Energy Agency is on the risks arising from a serious problem at this power plant and the potential for nuclear radiation in Eastern Europe. The distribution of iodine tablets among the residents in the areas surrounding the plant continues as one of the few measures to help citizens in the event of nuclear radiation.
