leading to pre-hydrogen explosions. the structures were intact. it was the lack of electricity that caused the damage. it caused the meltdown. that s worried about here. in addition, at this facility are several pools where they ve store this fuel. so even though the reactors have been shut down, you still have to cool the reactor rods, and if that plumbing, if that coup lint is interrupted, those two could heal up causing an explosion that will have material over tens of thousands of kilometers. we seem to have avoided that catastrophe for now. but this is just one of the 14 or 50 you clear reactors in ukraine. i don t want to see it repeat in this reckless assault in washington s efforts to strangle the to terrorize the ukrainians into surrendering.
