IAEA: Local ceasefire at Zaporizhzhia NPP to restore power; US envoys to visit Moscow, Kyiv

A local ceasefire has been agreed to repair external power supply to the Russian-controlled Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant, which has relied on diesel generators since August 20. The truce coincides with planned US envoy visits to Moscow and Kyiv to discuss ending the war, and Zelenskyy has ordered Ukrainian troops to halt combat during the visit. This marks a rare tactical pause in an active conflict, but its scope and duration remain uncertain.
