What happened

Hromadske relays an IAEA statement reporting the death of a plant employee in a drone attack. The victim was reportedly a repair-workshop welder. The agency did not identify the attacker. The account does not establish a reactor strike, radiological release or generation loss. The map references the plant; it does not locate where the worker was struck.

When cited sources give different casualty, damage or spill figures for this event, they’re reported side by side above rather than merged into one number. See how confidence levels work.
