Interesting drama going on at Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant. Ukraine has been shelling its power lines that feed its backup generators and blaming it on the Russians, who occupy and protect the facility with about 500 troops. More laughable "Russia is shelling itself" silliness. Zelensky is railing against Russian nuclear terror. The US is calling for Russia to turn it over to Ukraine to stop the risks of nuclear catastrophe. International politicians are calling for inspections. Russia apparently also wants inspectors present, but that was supposedly stopped by the UN. Energoatom, the Ukrainian operator, claimed to have inside intelligence that Russia is trying to destroy the plant. Meanwhile, Rosatom, the local Russian utility, instructed the operators to disconnect the plant from Ukraine's grid and connect it to the Crimean grid, which they have done. Then Energoatom came up with this ridiculous story; you don't need to shell power lines to disconnect them from the grid; just throw some switches.
