    Some news sources are saying it’s a tire fire. Not dangerous to the power plant at all, likely just an attempt by Russia to scare people.

      Some people argued that a градирня (is it heating tower in English?) doesn’t have much to burn, especially with that black heavy smoke. I’m no specialist, but with how loud the news about this fire are, I suspect there was indeed something else entirely and I’ve not seen any confirmation it has been hit by ukrainians yet. May be it’s a false flag self-attack from the beginning.
