Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky called on the United Nations to ensure security at the Zaporizhzhia power plant, where increased fighting has raised fears of a nuclear incident, reports AFP.

"The UN must ensure the security of this strategic object, its demilitarisation and complete liberation from Russian troops," Zelensky said in a statement after meeting UN chief Antonio Guterres in Lviv.

The Ukrainian leader also criticised "deliberate" Russian attacks on the facility.
