Course, we are coming into the summer season so it would have been very close to harvesting so irrigation systems have been completely wiped out, let alone the destruction taking place in the field. there is sewage in the flood waters as well and 150 tonnes of diesel oil that has leaked from the hydropower station. as far as the nuclear power plant is concerned, i think it is 150 kilometres north of the dam, the reservoir. stable at the dam, the reservoir. stable at the moment in terms of the co...

>> they do have backup options, they have reservoirs but you need freshwater to circulate, otherwise the reservoir can get too hot and you could have a potential meltdown. its critical they continue to get freshwater upstream to cool these nuclear reactors. >> to pull back and talk about the actions weve seen from ukrainian forces, or appear to be seeing from ukrainian forces. this has been an expectation there would be a counteroffensive for months. its been telegraphed, talked about. what do y...

Ukrainian people to conduct this fight or to conduct any kind of a river crossing operation that they need down there. my major concern with the blowing up of this dam is the impact on the zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, which is upriver from this dam about 50 miles. they desperately need cooling water in order to cool those six active reactors they have up there. none of them are online right now. but they still need cooling water in order to, you know, to prevent some kind of a catastrophe u...

Of laying it with explosives, kyiv blames moscow for being responsible for the scenes we are seeing. we cant definitively say who is responsible but in a military censor competes more for russia to have carried this out. why? ukraine is starting a counteroffensive step by step, this is an area which russian forces had been preparing for some kind of ukrainian offensive. blowing up kind of ukrainian offensive. blowing up the dam takes out a major crossing point and widens the river itself, but th...

I think what the heritage foundation is trying to establish is whether or not theres been some kind of favourable treatment, whether theres been a specific waiver in favour of prince harry here. they say theyre merely after information, but clearly theres also an agenda here, something of a political agenda, as well. if you want to read more about all the stories concerning prince harry, as always, you are more than welcome to go to our web page. now, though, lets move on and talk about another ...

As you can imagine. the nuclear power plant is nearly 100 miles from the dam. so what are the risks? the first is the nuclear reactors, which are used to generate electricity, but theyre all shut down and well below their normal operating temperatures. experts say they dont really need any additional water. the second is the cooling pond, which is topped up by the reservoir. it supplies the area that keeps spent nuclear fuel rods from overheating. because the fuel has been in there for a long ti...

Its reactors. and ukraine is blaming russia tonight. >> translator: this deliberate destruction of the dam and other hpp facilities by the russian occupiers is an environmental bomb of mass destruction. for the sake of their own security, the world should now show that russia will not get away with such terror. >> russia denies it, blaming ukraine. the united states is still investigating, it says, according to intelligence. earlier, zelenskyys senior adviser spoke to "outfront." he said the att...

Due to the accidents at the Fukushima nuclear plant in March 2011, the Japanese government is re-evaluating its commitment to nuclear energy. Japan’s apprehension about nuclear power is understandable, but closing nuclear plants or rejecting future construction would create substantial—and unnecessary—economic hardship. Japan must identify and fix what went wrong technologically and operationally with the Fukushima reactors. This identification must lead to major reforms—drawing on lesso...
