The International Atomic Energy Agency said the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant experienced its longest communications disruption since the beginning of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

The IAEA chief stated that the agency would "continue to investigate what caused this communication blackout and discuss how to prevent a recurrence"

The plant lost both landline and internet connections for about 12 hours on May 27, marking the longest such outage since the start of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
