Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that a nuclear power plant reactor can explode like a nuclear bomb?

No. Two sources directly state that nuclear reactors cannot explode like nuclear weapons, and a third describes only non-nuclear fluid-transient explosions in accidents. The evidence settles the claim in the negative.
