Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy warned on Friday that the safety of Europe's largest nuclear power plant Zaporizhzhia is threatened by Russia's war against Ukraine, as the country marked the 38th anniversary of the Chernobyl disaster.
Ukraine detained two security officials linked to a foiled Russian plot to assassinate President Zelensky. Allegedly, they received drones and ammunition from Russia's FSB. The SBU disclosed thwarted plans to target Zelensky and other high-ranking officials. This follows previous attempts, including a 2023 arrest of a woman and a Polish man's alleged involvement. Zelensky also narrowly escaped a missile strike during a visit to Odessa.

Ukrainian intelligence agents have successfully thwarted a Russian plan to assassinate Volodymyr Zelensky. The SBU State Security Service of Ukraine revealed that they apprehended Russian agents embedded within the Ukrainian state guard service. These agents were allegedly plotting to kidnap and assassinate the president along with other high-ranking government officials. According to Vasyl Malyuk, the Head of the SBU, the failed assassination attempt was intended as a "gift" to Vladimir Putin just before his upcoming inauguration on Tuesday. The SBU stated that they arrested two suspected "moles" who they believe were recruited by Russia prior to the invasion

This Day in History: , Nuclear Disaster
at Chernobyl.
April 26, 1986.
The disaster at Chernobyl, located about 65 miles from Kiev in the former Soviet Union, is the worst nuclear power plant accident to date.
50 tons of radioactive material was released into the atmosphere after an explosion of the Number 4 reactor, caused by an engineering experiment.
The 30,000 residents of
the nearby community of
Pripyat were evacuated the next day.
The Soviet government
attempted a cover-up.
But two days after the disaster, radiation levels
800 miles away in Sweden were detected at
40% higher than the normal level.
32 people were initially
killed in the Chernobyl plant.
5,000 Soviets eventually died
from radiation-induced illnesses.
Millions of acres of forest
and farmland across Northern
and Eastern Europe were contaminated.
The former residents of
Pripyat have never returned
