IAEA: Cooling pond water levels decreasing at Ukraine nuclear plant
The water level in Ukraine’s Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant cooling pond continues to decrease, creating a serious safety threat.
“If this trend continues, ZNPP staff confirmed that it will soon become challenging to pump water from the pond.
