OUR UkrainianEnergoatom, the state-owned nuclear energy company, announced tonight that its second reactor nuclear power plant her Zaporozhyecontrolled by Russian troops is reconnected to the Ukrainian power grid.

The first reactor was reconnected this morning, and Energoatom assured that the safety systems are working normally.

Recall that the last two operating reactors at the Russian-owned nuclear power plant were shut down yesterday Thursday when fires nearby damaged overhead cables.

In recent days, the Zaporozhye NPP has been shelled several times, which raises fears of a nuclear accident.

UN Secretary-General António Guterres called for the demilitarization of the area around the plant, which is also the largest in Europe.
