There seems to be nothing wrong with the nuclear power plant… Ukraine-Russia, once again in a responsible battle
–
The bombardment of the Zaporiza nuclear power plant in Ukraine, the largest nuclear power plant in Europe, recurred on the 11th (local time).
On this day, the UN Security Council (Security Council) was scheduled to be held to discuss the safety issue of the Japoriza nuclear power plant.
According to Reuters and TASS news agency, a Russian-appointed official in the Zaporiza provincial administration claimed that “Ukrainian forces have again attacked the Zaporiza nuclear power plant and the area surrounding the nuclear facility.”
He added that there were two attacks in one day alone.
On the other hand, Ukrainian state-owned nuclear power company Energoatom said that Russia had launched five attacks on the nuclear power plant on the same day.
It also explained that attacks were also carried out around the facility where the nuclear material was stored, but control of the nuclear power plant was maintained and there were no injuries.
This happened on the day the UN Security Council was to be held in New York to discuss the Zaporiza nuclear power plant issue.
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Secretary-General Rafael Grossi was also scheduled to explain the situation at the Japorija nuclear power plant to the 15 members of the Security Council.
Meanwhile, UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has repeatedly urged Ukraine and Russia to immediately stop military activities around the nuclear power plant.
“Potential damage to any nuclear facility, including the Zaporiza nuclear power plant, could have catastrophic consequences not only in the immediate vicinity, but in a much wider area,” Guterres said in a statement.
The Zaporiza nuclear power plant complex, which has six reactors, is the largest single facility in Europe and was occupied by Russian forces in early March, right after Russia invaded Ukraine.
At that time, concerns about a nuclear disaster were raised as the buildings around the Zaporiza nuclear power plant were on fire due to Russian bombardment.
In particular, military activities aimed at nuclear power plants have continued, starting with the bombardment of the site on the 5th and 6th.
Both Ukraine and Russia are blaming each other to stop nuclear terrorism.
