TL;DR Summary

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has warned that Russian intelligence is planning a terrorist attack on the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant, which has been occupied by Russian forces since last year. The alleged plot involves a release of radiation, but Russia has dismissed the allegations as a lie. The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has confirmed that the plant is stable, but there are concerns about how sustainable interim measures might prove after the destruction of the Kakhovka dam, which provided the plant's cooling water.
