Aug 31 — Rosatom CEO Likhachov said the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant has been operating solely on its own diesel generators for 11 consecutive days and described the situation as worrying. He said Rosatom’s estimate of how long the plant can run autonomously differs significantly from the IAEA’s assessment. Likhachov said continued Ukrainian shelling of roads to the plant has made fuel deliveries dangerous; Rosatom is prioritizing diesel transport to secure fuel supplies. The company said it is fully in control of the plant and accused Kyiv authorities of trying to worsen conditions, and hopes to secure a ceasefire this week to repair external power transmission lines.
