Russia’s UN envoy Vassily Nebenzia denies that his county’s forces bombed Ukraine’s Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant during an emergency Security Council session on the attack.

“Together with the people of Belarus and Ukraine, we lived through the tragedy of Chernobyl and so we are more interested than most in maintaining a normal radiation situation,” Nebenzia says, according to a quote from Bloomberg.
