Qısa məlumat

Zaporizhzhya Nuclear Power Plant was occupied by Russian troops on 3 March 2022. Since then, the lack of a proper management system has created repeated critical situations that have enforced a shutdown of the reactors. Further environmental challenges require urgent study. Realistic measures to manage the environmental situation at a local scale as well as measures to prevent a major nuclear disaster are proposed. We also examine the applicability of the norms and requirements of international law to resolve the situation.
