Nuclear plant alert in Slovenia


The European Commission has issued an alert over an incident at a nuclear power plant in Slovenia.

The EU’s executive body says it was informed by Slovene authorities about a problem with the primary cooling system of the Krsko nuclear plant in the southwest of the country.

It says the plant was implementing a safe shutdown procedure and no discharge into the environment has been immediately detected.
