Russian plans to hold drills simulating the use of tactical nuclear weapons, the Defense Ministry announced Monday, days after the Kremlin reacted angrily to comments by senior Western officials about the war in Ukraine. The drills are in response to “provocative statements and threats of certain Western officials regarding the Russian Federation,” the Defense Ministry said in a statement. It is the first time that Russia has publicly announced drills involving tactical nuclear weapons, though its strategic nuclear forces regularly hold exercises. Tactical nuclear weapons have a lower yield co...

Even as the 38th anniversary of the Chornobyl nuclear disaster has come and gone, the nuclear threat posed by Moscow continues to grow. Rosatom, the Russian state nuclear energy company, has a hand in this – namely, by financing Russia’s war against Ukraine, fostering global energy dependencies that threaten to undermine support for Kyiv, and facilitating the occupation of Ukrainian nuclear facilities. Rosatom controls over 40% and 17% of the global markets for uranium enrichment and reactor fuel, respectively. Close to 90 nuclear power units around the world are Russian-designed. Rosatom’s fo...

Thirty-eight years after the Chornobyl disaster, Ukraine’s nuclear industry continues to produce around half of Ukraine’s power output and remains vital to keeping the country functioning. The share of energy output in Ukraine that comes from nuclear power is the third highest in the world after France and Slovakia. Amid ongoing attacks on the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant, the threat of a new nuclear accident in Ukraine remains elevated and has brought an unprecedented level of attention and involvement from the International Atomic Energy Agency. After the seizure of the Zaporizhzhia plan...

In southeastern Ukraine lies the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power station. Captured by Moscow soon after its 2022 invasion of Ukraine, the plant has frequently been caught in the crossfire, becoming a continual source of worry for international observers. Some have even warned of nuclear disaster, similar to Chernobyl. The latest concerning incident saw a drone hit the plant in April, with both sides exchanging blame. Firing kamikaze drones at Zaporizhzhia is "a no-brainer", former International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) chief nuclear inspector Robert E. Kelley tells Euronews. He adds "there's rea...

Ukraine's nuclear energy agency Energoatom has started building reactor units 5 and 6 at the Khmelnytskyi Nuclear Power Plant using U.S. technology that would help prevent power outages in case of Russian attacks, Energoatom's press service said on April 15. Amid Russia's large-scale missile and drone attacks on Ukraine's energy system, Kyiv seeks to protect its critical infrastructure facilities. Ukraine also aims to secure additional power-generating capacity as the country's largest nuclear power plant in Zaporizhzhia Oblast has remained under Russian occupation since March 2022. After the ...
