The British government has announced an allocation of £17 million to finance critically important repair works at the Chornobyl nuclear power plant in Ukraine. The facility was damaged following a Russian drone strike that occurred last year. The attack damaged the protective structure that was erected over the fourth reactor unit, destroyed in 1986, to prevent radiation leakage and ensure the safety of the facility. The allocated funds will be directed towards eliminating the consequences of damage and restoring protective structures, which should reduce risks to the environment and the population of the region. This assistance is part of broader support that Britain is providing to Ukraine amid the ongoing Russian invasion, which affects critical infrastructure, including nuclear power facilities. Chornobyl remains a symbol of one of the largest man-made disasters in history, and ensuring its safety is viewed by the international community as a priority task.
