Since August 20, 2026, the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant has been operating on backup diesel generators due to the loss of external power supply. The plant has been without electricity for over a week, raising concerns about nuclear safety. A local ceasefire, brokered by the IAEA, allowed for repairs to the power line, and on September 7, energy workers restored external power.

On September 5, a local ceasefire took effect near the Zaporizhzhia NPP, brokered by the IAEA. This will allow for the repair of the damaged power line that supplies external electricity to the plant, which has been operating on diesel generators since August 20.
Energoatom reported a critical state of nuclear and radiation safety at the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant, which has been operating on diesel generators since August 20 due to the loss of external power supply. The situation poses risks of system failures and loss of control over nuclear facilities.
