Nuclear power plant cuts in Ukraine 'cannot go on' - UN

From Morning Report, 7:23 am on 10 March 2023

Russia has launched its largest offensive on Ukraine since the anniversary of the war last month.

Missiles rained down across the country, killing at least nine people and knocking out power for several hours at Europe's largest nuclear plant.

Cities from Kharkiv  in the north, to Odesa in the south, to Lviv in the west were all targeted.

The head of the UN's nuclear watchdog, Rafael Grossi, had some strong words to his board of governors.

New Zealand journalist Tom Mutch is covering the war from the capital Kyiv.

He spoke to Morning Report.
