Nuclear Concerns in Kursk Region

The head of the International Atomic Energy Agency has warned of a potential nuclear accident in Russia's Kursk region, especially following Ukraine's recent military actions. Although the nuclear station is reportedly operating close to normal, the presence of remnants from drone strikes poses a potential danger for future incidents. The IAEA chief emphasized the seriousness of the situation, urging both Ukraine and Russia to exercise maximum restraint to avoid catastrophic consequences. While he clarified that the scenario would not equate to the disasters seen at Chernobyl, the risks remain significant, highlighting the delicate nature of nuclear safety in conflict zones.
