On the night of October 6 to 7, two russian UAVs were registered near the industrial site of the South Ukraine NPP. The flight distance of the Shahed drones from the nuclear facilities was less than 10 km.
Cases of capture of russian UAVs have recently increased manifold, which may indicate russia's preparation for strikes on Ukrainian nuclear infrastructure.
Energoatom provides information about each such fact to relevant institutions for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine to send notes to the International Atomic Energy Agency and inform national and international organizations.
“The aggressor country takes these steps being fully aware of the possible consequences. This is nuclear terrorism and intimidation for the whole world with a radiation accident” Petro Kotin, Head of Energoatom, emphasized.
