The repeated reliance on these systems raises serious concerns about the stability of the facility’s operations and the risks of prolonged disruptions. Experts warn that such dependence on temporary measures could exacerbate safety hazards and operational failures. The situation underscores ongoing challenges in maintaining essential infrastructure amid the conflict.
