Several people are being treated for smoke inhalation after an explosion and fire at a nuclear power plant in France .
Authorities said there was ''no nuclear risk'' following the blast in Flamanville shortly before 10am local time (9am GMT) on Thursday.
''It is a significant technical issue but does not constitute a nuclear accident'', Olivier Marmion, director of the prefect's office, told AFP, adding that the explosion occurred outside the nuclear zone.
The Flamanville nuclear power plant is run by EDF Energy, which is the main contractor on the new 18bn Hinkley Point C station in Somerset. * +
