\n Fire sparked at Russian nuclear plant and flights suspended during overnight Ukrainian drone attacks, officials say\n <\/p>\n

\n

A fire was sparked and capacity was reduced by 50% at the Kursk nuclear power plant overnight after a Ukrainian drone was shot down over the site, Russian officials said.<\/p>\n

There were no injuries and a fire sparked by the attack was promptly extinguished, the plant’s press service said. Radiation levels at the site and in the surrounding area have not exceeded normal limits, it added. <\/p>\n

The UN’s nuclear watchdog has repeatedly called on both Russia and Ukraine to show maximum restraint around nuclear facilities in the war.<\/p>\n

Ukraine has not commented on the accusation regarding the plant in Kursk, a region where Kyiv’s troops briefly invaded in a surprise military counteroffensive last year.<\/p>\n

\nsparking a fire at a fuel export terminal and processing complex.<\/p>\n

Vyacheslav Fedorishchev, governor of the Samara region, said Ukrainian drones also attacked an industrial enterprise in the southern city of Syzran, adding there were no casualties.<\/p>\n

\nwere halted for hours on end at several airports
\novernight, including at the Pulkovo airport in the Leningrad
\nregion, due to the threat of drone attacks.<\/p>\n
