KYIV, Nov 28 (Reuters) - The Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant in southern Ukraine is still under Russian control and will remain so, the Kremlin said on Monday, after a Ukrainian official suggested Russian forces were preparing to leave.

The head of Ukraine’s state-run nuclear energy company said on Sunday there were signs that Russian forces might be preparing to vacate Europe’s biggest nuclear plant, which they seized in March, soon after invading Ukraine.“There’s no need to look for signs where there are none and cannot be any,” spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters in a briefing on Monday.

Both sides have warned of the danger of a nuclear catastrophe. The U.N. nuclear watchdog, the International Atomic Energy Agency, wants to create a protection zone around the plant.

Zelensky warns of more Russian missile attacks on Ukraine | News24Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky has warned of new Russian missile attacks on his country, urging defence forces and citizens to be prepared to withstand a new week of strain on the power grid. Which missiles since Russia ran out of missiles month ago according to EU reports? I'm getting tired of Zelensky now. The inhumanity of plunging innocent civilians into a powerless freezing winter for the sake of imperial ambitions.
