Russia has fired missiles towards a nuclear reactor, it is claimed, as experts warn their actions could result in a radiation catastrophe in Ukraine.
Forces fired unguided rockets at the US-funded $70million Kharkiv Institute of Physics and Technology, which houses a reactor for research purposes, Emine Dzheppar, Ukraine's deputy minister for foreign affairs, said today.
The reactor is not as big as those found at power plants but if damaged would still pose a danger.
