Russian troops have tried to reach Europe’s largest nuclear power plant but were reportedly stopped by huge crowds of nonviolent Ukrainian protesters who blocked their advance. Video shows hundreds of people gathered around barricades erected on the main road leading to the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power complex. Greenpeace warns more than 850 tons of highly radioactive fuel rods are stored at the facility and that a nuclear disaster could leave large swaths of Europe and Russia uninhabitable for decades.
