External power restored to Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant

The outage sparked concerns in the West with the UN's nuclear watchdog chief warning that the situation at the plant was"extremely vulnerable". Denmark would like to host a summit in July to work out how to bring peace to Ukraine, the country's foreign minister has said. "Ukraine's Zaporizhzhia power plant this morning lost all external electricity for the seventh time during conflict," Mr Rossi, the head of the International Atomic Energy Agency, said.

"From the very beginning we understood that on a technical point Bakhmut is a regular city which is not a big one. It cites key differences in the way a victory in Bakhmut has been portrayed by Russian state television and Russian ultranationalist milbloggers. It adds that the Kremlin likely attempted to oversell the significance of the alleged capture of the city because of its lack of tactical success on the ground.

He added that scores of buildings, including private homes, apartment blocks and administrative infrastructure were damaged or destroyed.Ukrainian security expert Maria Avdeeva claimed on Twitter that Moscow used"20 Shahed drones", adding that a new Russian tactic is to attack one city with a combination of weapons.

"Russia had to move precious reserves of people and ammunition to stop Ukrainian movement to the north and south of the city, so that will have handicapped their preparation for the offensive, but the next big thing is Ukraine's counteroffensive".He said:"The key thing that's come out of this is that the Wagner Group is coming out of the fight at least for a while its been broken by Bakhmut.

The ministry said the group, code-named"Shtorm", will likely consist of a mixture of aircraft types suggesting that it will have a primary role of ground mission attacks.
