staff operating the plot experts, a damage to buildings that housed nuclear, fuel, and radioactive waste needs to be repaired. the facility in the southern city of and daughter usually generates around half of ukraine's nuclear power, but fighting the region as increased the risk of damage to the national grid. and the worst case scenario explosions could destroy the reactor containment structure . and that would allow high radiation levels to escape into the atmosphere, making nearby areas dangerous to live in for decades. where the head of the you and nuclear watchdog has presented his findings to the security council. our diplomatic editor james base. as this report, having just led a mission by a team of inspectors to the separate c, a nuclear power plant, a place that's been shelled repeatedly the head of the i a e. a spoke to the security council about his findings. the current situation, he said, was dangerous and untenable their physical attack, wittingly or unwittingly,

or that he's, that these facility has received and that i could personally see and assess together with my experts is simply an acceptable. we are playing with fire and something very, very catastrophic. could take place, he's now proposing a demilitarized protection zone rounds, aperture, the largest nuclear power plant in europe. it's a proposal that is all so strongly backed by the un secretary general. an agreement on a demilitarized buddy emitter should be secured. specifically, that will include the commitment by russian forces to withdraw all military personnel and equipment from that perimeter. and the commitment by ukrainian forces not to move into its didn't have both the ukrainian and the russian ambassadors spoken the meeting, each blaming the other for the shelling of the plant. after the security council

meeting, i asked rushes ambassador about the proposal for the demilitarized zone. i want to know the details. same as here. i don't know. do not know what sir, director general grocery display that to what extent that will improve the safety, the boss, physical and nuclear safety of the plant. the proposal for the military zone was supported by most members of the security council, but russia and ukraine both said they wanted more details. it's clear much more diplomacy and persuasion will be needed. if this idea is ever to be turned into reality. james bays al jazeera at the united nations when documented net mascot is a professor of seville and environmental engineering at the university of southern california and specializes in nuclear safety him. he told us the situation is very worry. this proposal for demilitarised security zone was floated by secretary general if you are missing, which is almost

a month ago when he was visiting the hiroshima in japan. and then russia flatly rejected that it was raised before. after a few more times, you remember that this was the 3rd meeting of un security cancer in the last month and a half. and i do not think that russia will accept that because what is happening at supper? sure, since they're a patient of russia has been unbelievable. first of all, there is shelling there. shelling can attack or can cause damage to the spent fuel pool, which are not protected or not under the containment. do what it can affect all aspect of the physical infrastructure of the plan which causes a lot of hazard. the other thing that this patient has done, and this has been mentioned, this is that a report that was released today based on their heroic commission. last is the

state of the staff and the mental status of the staff. there are some boards over here by reading between the lines of this report, not only the lines which is very scary for me. i've been in the area of nuclear safety research for last 35 years on believable pressure that the operating staff are subject to constant high stress friction when it comes to decision making the russian all players court under extremely stressful condition, while under control of russian troops these are all unfortunately the recipe for disaster. european countries are scrambling to find alternative energy sources after russia shut down a crucial gas pipeline to the continent. the french president, a man or macro, is urging households to limit the use of gas and electricity. macklin also said he may consider forced energy savings if the voluntary measures are not sufficient. on

monday, germany announced it will keep to its remaining nuclear power stations on stand by to battle the energy crisis. dominic cane has more from berlin. there's quite a few strands from a european perspective to the energy crisis as it presents itself to day. we know that from the e institutions perspective that the check presidency, 6 mother noting presidency, which the checks have right now is putting forward a draft document which would look at the idea of placing caps on the price of gas that would be brought into the e u from whatever source. and we know also that the spanish government is saying that they understand that there is the talk about the possibility of capping the amount of gas being brought in either piped in from russia or indeed brought in on boats that would be liquefied natural gas. we know that the spanish government says it has been bringing in more l n g from russia over the course of this summer. so that's being discuss this idea of price caps at the e, you level we know separately that in finland, for example,

the authorities there have said that they are going to boost the amount of power, the amount of output coming from their nuclear reactors. remembering that nuclear provides around a 3rd of all finish energy. so lots of different strands at the european level to day me, while china is announced, it won't stop paying for gas from russia in us dollars awards, which to roubles new on. instead, the agreement is another sign of stronger ties between the allies after the west imposed sanctions on russia for its war in ukraine. britain's new prime minister lives trust to started appointing senior members of her cabinet off to take you from birth johnson. on tuesday, she addressed the nation, promising to tackle the cost of living crisis and to rebuild the economy. letty baba reports now from london. as lose trust took her 1st steps in downing street, his prime minister. her focus was on reassuring the nation. things come get better . we now play severe global head winds caused by russia's appalling war in

to be and then you need to respond. and the big message for me is trickle down. economics does not work. the last 15 years has shown us that because economy has granite points, the cake has got bigger. but what's happened is that those are the top of taken law and the majority of people have not benefited mr. ross will want to offer her own vision of britain as it faces, economic and ex, essential crises. but she must also show the public. she's able to be pragmatic and take steps to stop millions of people slipping into poverty. the challenge is immense. nadine barbara al jazeera london willis trusses assembled a diverse cabinet. that includes britons 1st black finance and foreign ministers of shipments is more from danny st. this trust has to hit the ground running with release millions of families all over the u. k. facing crippling energy bills as from january triple the cost,
