Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy speaks during joint press conference with Canada’s Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in Kyiv, Ukraine on Saturday, June 10, 2023.KYIV, Ukraine—Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Saturday that counteroffensive and defensive actions are underway against Russian forces, asserting that his top commanders are in a “positive” mindset as their troops engaged in intense fighting along the front line.
“I am in touch with our commanders of different directions every day,” he added, citing the names of five of Ukraine’s top military leaders. “Everyone is positive. Pass this on to Putin.” Recent Western injections of billions of dollars’ worth of military equipment—some of it high-tech and top-of-the-line—to Ukraine has raised expectations about when it would be used, and to what effect against dug-in Russian lines.
Ukraine’s nuclear energy agency Energoatom said the last operating reactor at the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, Europe’s largest, had been placed in “cold shutdown” mode. That’s a process in which all control rods are inserted into the reactor core to stop the nuclear fission reaction and generation of heat and pressure.
The site’s power units have not been operating since September last year. The head of the International Atomic Energy Agency is due to visit Ukraine in the coming days.
