The funds will be received through a special account, the International Chornobyl Cooperation Account, managed by the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development.<\/p>\n<p> The funding will be used to restore the facility&#8217;s security systems after a Russian drone attack in February 2025. The New Safe Confinement, which covers the plant&#8217;s destroyed fourth power unit, was damaged.<\/p>\n<p> &#8220;Norway remains one of Ukraine&#8217;s most reliable partners in strengthening the resilience of our energy sector and overcoming the consequences of Russian attacks,&#8221; Shmyhal noted.<\/p>\n<p> The head of government emphasized that Norwegian assistance has repeatedly helped restore Ukrainian energy infrastructure after Russian strikes.<\/p>\n<p> Shmyhal also recalled that international partners had previously announced the allocation of funds for the repair of the confinement. In particular, the United States announced its intention to provide $100 million, and the EBRD and other partners attracted additional funding for the first stage of restoration work.<\/p>\n<p> &#8220;These contributions are an important step towards strengthening nuclear and radiation safety not only in Ukraine, but also in all of Europe,&#8221; the Prime Minister emphasized.<\/p>\n<p> As a reminder, on the night of June 7 <a href=\"https:\/\/prm.ua\/rosiyskyy-dron-vluchyv-u-skhovyshche-vidpratsovanoho-iadernoho-palyva-na-chaes\/\">, a Russian drone attacked the site of the Centralized Spent Nuclear Fuel Storage Facility<\/a> .
