>>144221Radiation level in Lithuania unchanged after Zaporizhzhia NPP fireThe radiation level in Lithuania remains unchanged after a fire broke out in the territory of the Russian-occupied Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant in Ukraine, the Radiation Protection Centre reported late on Sunday evening.
“We would like to reassure the population of Lithuania that the radiation protection specialists are constantly monitoring the radiation background in Lithuania, which is unchanged and there is no reason for the population to worry,” the centre wrote on Facebook.
The Zaporizhzhia NPP, located in the south of Ukraine, is more than 900 kilometres away from Lithuania.
The fire at the plant broke out on Sunday, and Kyiv and Moscow blame each other for it.
Both sides said no changes in radiation levels have been recorded around the plant, which has been under the control of Russian forces since the early days of Russia’s large-scale invasion of Ukraine.
The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) said on Sunday that the fire at the plant did not pose a threat to nuclear safety.
