(Reuters) – A fire at the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power station in Ukraine, the largest of its kind in Europe, broke out in a training building outside the plant’s perimeter after an attack by Russian troops, the state emergency service said in a statement on Friday.

Separately, the plant’s director told Ukraine 24 television that radiation security had been secured at the site.
