Nuclear plant safety concerns rise amid Ukraine evacuations.

TL;DR Summary
The UN's nuclear watchdog has raised concerns about the safety of the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, which is held by Russian forces but mostly operated by a Ukrainian workforce, after Moscow ordered the evacuation of residents from Russian-occupied areas close to the facility. The plant's position on the front lines means shelling in the surrounding towns and near the facility is common, and it has frequently been disconnected from Ukraine's power grid due to intense Russian shelling in the area, repeatedly raising fears across Europe of a nuclear accident.
