Video Summary
AI GeneratedEurope's largest nuclear power plant, Zaporizhia, is currently relying on emergency diesel generators for cooling after losing external electricity. While the IAEA warns of limited fuel supplies, experts note that because the reactors have been shut down for two years, there is a longer window to prevent a meltdown compared to an active plant, though the situation remains critical.
