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.
Right, Russia just keeps blowing up their own pipelines dams and nuclear power plants. Imagine being a grown ass adult and actually believing that. When nord stream was blown up all the imbeciles in the west screeched that it was Russia who did it. Now slowly admissions are coming out that it wasn’t Russia. Yet, here we are again each time a piece of infrastructure Russia controls, people inexplicably think that Russia destroyed it.
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
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.
i’ve seen this guy in many ukraine related threads shilling for the ruskies

They blew up a dam they controlled. why not a nuclear power plant?
