A Russian-controlled Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant employee in southern Ukraine was killed in a car bomb attack.

The plant is Europe's largest and has been Russian-controlled since March 2022, near the Ukraine-Russia frontline.

A tragic incident unfolded at the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant on Friday morning when a car bomb attack claimed the life of an employee, according to Russian investigators.

The plant issued a statement accusing Ukrainian authorities of being responsible for the attack; however, there has been no response from Ukraine so far.

The strategic Zaporizhzhia facility, Europe's largest nuclear plant, has been under Russian control since March 2022 and is situated near the ongoing conflict's frontline.
