'Critical' power outage at nuclear plant sparks fears & special interview with UN's Special Rapporteur on Torture

Day 1,316.


Today, as fears are sounded over the state of the Zaporizhzhia
Nuclear Power Plant, we hear how Princess Anne has made a
surprise visit to Kyiv to “demonstrate solidarity” with Ukrainian
children and families affected by the conflict. Then we report
how French authorities have seized a shadow fleet tanker and
Polish police arrested a Ukrainian man for the Nordstream 2
pipeline sabotage. Later, you’ll hear Dom’s interview with the
UN’s Special Rapporteur for Torture, Alice Edwards, and a note:
our discussion covers graphic descriptions of sexual
torture.
