The U.N.’s nuclear watchdog said on Thursday that officials at Ukraine’s Russian-held Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant had reported a new attempted drone attack on the facility’s training centre—less than two weeks after other similar incidents.

Russia-installed officials at the plant, the largest nuclear facility in Europe, said Ukraine was behind the latest incident.
