April 26, 2026 marks the 40th anniversary of the Chernobyl nuclear disaster, commemorated by Ukraine in the context of total war. Zelensky accused Russia of 'nuclear terrorism,' recalling that a Russian drone struck the reactor containment structure in February 2025 and that drones regularly fly over the site. The IAEA calls for urgent repairs. During commemorations, Russian strikes killed at least 16 people across Ukraine.
