Plan risks catastrophic failure of cooling systems, says head of Ukraine’s atomic energy company

A detailed plan has been drawn up by Russia to disconnect Europe’s largest nuclear plant from Ukraine’s power grid, risking a catastrophic failure of its cooling systems, the Guardian has been told.after footage emerged of Russian army vehicles inside the plant, and have previously warned Russia against cutting it off from the Ukrainian grid and connecting it up to the Russian power network.

He fears that Russia’s military is now targeting those connections to make the emergency scenario a reality. Both Ukraine and Russia have accused each other of shelling the site. The plant’s electricity connections are already in a critical situation, with three of the four main lines connecting it to Ukraine’s grid broken during the war, and two of the three back-up lines connecting it to a conventional power plant also down, he said.

Plan to dock unvaccinated teachers' pay 'about punishment'Educators are "horrified" over a plan that will see Queensland teachers docked pay if they refuse to get a COVID-19 vaccination. Can't wait for the lawsuits over this one. Authoritarianism at its finest. I don't agree with anti vaxxers..but I respect their rights to choice. I fail to see how this should impact work status financially or otherwise. Especially if they are good teachers cause we need more of them
