01.10.2025The Day Russia Caused Blackout at Chornobyl Nuclear Plant
Ukrainian media initially highlighted a critical situation at the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant, with President Zelenskyy noting a Russian generator failure. Early morning reports also covered a deadly storm in Odesa, causing 9 fatalities, including a child.

The focus shifted significantly in the afternoon to a widespread power outage following an attack on an energy facility in Slavutych, which led to a blackout at the Chornobyl NPP and scheduled electricity cut-offs in the Chernihiv region. Zelenskyy later accused Russia of a deliberate strike on the Slavutych substation to de-energize Chornobyl NPP, describing it as a "global threat." Concurrently, frontline combat continued intensely, particularly in the Pokrovsk sector.
