| {{main|Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant crisis}}
Chair of the [[Defence Select Committee]] of the United Kingdom [[Tobias Ellwood]] said that any deliberate attack against the [[Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant]] in [[Ukraine]] that could cause radiation leaks would be a breach of Article 5. This statement was released over fears that a nuclear catastrophe could occur in the Russian-occupied plant during the [[2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine]]. The next day, American congressman [[Adam Kinzinger]] said that any radiation leak into NATO countries would kill people, which would be an automatic activation of Article 5.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://charter97.org/en/news/2022/8/20/512116/|title=UK, US Set Ultimatum Against Russia Due To Provocations At Zaporizhzhia NPP|publisher=[[Charter 97]]|date=20 August 2022|access-date=20 August 2022|archive-date=1 September 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220901134421/https://charter97.org/en/news/2022/8/20/512116/|url-status=live}}</ref>
