This is interesting, is it because they are loosing territory or planning to blow it?
Russia is reducing its presence at the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, Ukraine’s military intelligence directorate (GUR) has claimed, with staff told to relocate to Crimea and military patrols scaled back.
The agency’s chief, Kyrylo Budanov, has alleged Moscow has approved a plan to blow up the station and has mined four out of six power units, as well as a cooling pond. Last week Ukraine’s president, Volodymyr Zelenskiy, said Russia was plotting a “terrorist attack”.
According to the GUR, several representatives of Russia’s state nuclear energy agency, Rosatom, have already left. Ukrainian employees who stayed at the plant and signed contracts with Rosatom had been told to evacuate by Monday, preferably to Crimea, it said.
I guess they could blow it up soon. Horrifying.
This is pure deranged nonsense even IAEA says it https://www.france24.com/en/tv-shows/the-interview/20230629-iaea-saw-no-evidence-moscow-planning-attack-on-zaporizhia-nuclear-plant-but-anything-can-happen
Grossi asserted that he “didn’t see that kind of development” on the ground, but also that “anything can happen, that is what worries me”.
IAEA is not confirming it, but I think it’s a stretch to get “pure deranged nonsense” from that quote.
Thinking that Russia would blow up a nuclear power plant that Russia controls is deranged nonsense.
…in your opinion. As per your link, the IAEA does not share your certainty.
In the opinion of any sane person, and what IAEA says is that there is no substance to the conspiracy theory being peddled here.
It is fascinating how personal biases shape our communications and beliefs.
They blew up a dam they controlled. why not a nuclear power plant?
Has Russia claimed that?
Russia has claimed to destroy more of every system than the west has sent, before they were even fully sent. Visually confirmed loss data has proven that Russia lies consistently about loss ratios vs Ukraine and number of systems and personnel lost, and have been throughout the entire war. Ukraine lies to some degree too, but no where near as much the Russians lie. You can believe me if you want, and I know you probably won’t, but for everyone else reading, anyone telling you to take the russian claims as truth (or Ukrainian for that matter, or anywhere that isn’t open source and/or transparent about its methodology with plenty of proof to back it up), is probably lying to you, either willfully or ignorantly.
No but they didn’t claim the mass graves in bucha either so i am reluctant to trust their silence
probably a bit of both :/
@lenux12343 I’d presume that #Putin will likely pull out of #Ukraine entirely if he doesn’t win soon (within the next two-three weeks), looking at the support #Prigozhin was able to get among the citizens of #Russia
Wanna bet?
I really hope they dont plan to blow it… this + fukushima putting radioactive water back to the sea can be ridiculously bad.
The US will probably do it, let’s hope they don’t.
The same class of people responsible for Fukushima (skimping on costs to maximise profits) would be more than happy to blow a nuclear reactor.
