Ukraine Recap: Nuclear Tension Surges Amid Frontline Fighting

Ukraine and Russia traded barbs over the danger of an attack on a Russian-occupied nuclear power plant as intense fighting continued along the frontline.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy reinforced a warning overnight that Russia may be planning to sabotage the plant in Zaporizhzhia in the country’s south. The Kremlin responded Wednesday that the government in Kyiv is planning a provocation.

Ukraine’s central bank, increasingly confident of a recovering wartime economy, is meanwhile preparing to ease restrictions imposed after the Russian invasion. Last week it approved a strategy to transition to a flexible exchange rate and return to an inflation-targeting approach to monetary policy.
