Russia plans to relocate around 2,700 Ukrainian staff from Europe’s largest nuclear plant, Ukraine’s atomic energy company has claimed.

Energoatom warned of a potentially “catastrophic lack of qualified personnel” at the Zaporizhzhia facility in Russia-occupied southern Ukraine should the plans go ahead.
