Responsibility for the catastrophe at the Zaporizhzhya nuclear power plant, if it occurs, will fall entirely on Kyiv's Western backers, Russia's envoy to the organization Vasily Nebenzia said at a UN Security Council meeting.
" ; The real scale of the nuclear catastrophe at the ZNPP is even difficult to imagine. In this case, the responsibility for this will lie with the Western sponsors of Kyiv", he said.
«. Kyiv brought the world to the brink of a nuclear catastropheDuring a special operation, the Russian military occupied the Kherson region and the Azov part of the Zaporozhye region, and new pro-Russian administrations were formed in the regions. They also took control of the Zaporizhzhya Nuclear Power Plant, the largest plant in Europe in terms of power and number of units. Ukrainian troops have already attacked the territory of the nuclear power plant several times. Shelling has become more frequent since August 5. On the night of August 7, Ukrainian troops launched a strike from the Uragan MLRS, fragments and a rocket engine fell about 400 meters from the operating power unit of the station. Two installations after the shelling are not working at full capacity. On Thursday, three Ukrainian shells fell near a storage facility for radioactive isotopes. Against the backdrop of Kyiv's actions, Moscow requested a meeting of the UN Security Council. It is planned that the power plant will be visited by an IAEA mission led by the head of the agency, Rafael Grossi.
