Fears are growing of a nuclear disaster after Russian troops began shelling the Ukrainian town where staff working at the Chernobyl plant live.
There are concerns Russian shelling of Ukrainian checkpoints in the city of Slavutych, home Chernobyl nuclear workers, is preventing workers coming in and out of the plant.
And the bombing comes just days after Ukrainian workers who were being held by Russian forces to maintain the nuclear plant for nearly four weeks without being rotated were finally able to go back to their homes in Slavutych.
