All external power lines supplying electricity to the Russian-occupied Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant in Ukraine were down for several hours on Friday, the U.N. nuclear watchdog said, but the station's management later said power had been restored.

Specialists from Ukrenergo, Ukraine's national power company, have restored the operation of the high-voltage transmission line supplying power to the temporarily occupied Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant.

In her announcement, Gov. Kathy Hochul gave few details about where the plant would be built, how much the project would cost or how long it would take to complete.
