"No one knew whether Russia would hit": Zelensky mentioned the worst moments of war (video)
It is one of the nuclear power plants that one of the worst moments of war is connected, as stated by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy during a speech at the UN General Assembly in New York. According to him, it is an incident in March 2022, when the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation attacked the Zaporizhzhya NPP in Energodar. At that time, no one knew whether Russia would blow on a nuclear object, which would lead to unpredictable consequences.
"Russian rockets flew near the largest reactor in Europe, in Zaporozhye. The Russians created this attack just like other attacks without thinking about the consequences. These were the most horrific minutes in this war. When no one knew whether Russia would hit (by Zaporizhzhya NPP, - Ed. ) ", - said Volodymyr Zelenskyy. Separately, the head of state added that for more than two years the Zaporizhzhya Nuclear Power Plant in Energodar remains under Russian occupation.
This poses a threat to a nuclear incident, which makes the main source of radiation danger in Europe, perhaps in the world. "That is why in the formula I presented the first point is nuclear security . . . And I want to remind you exactly the adoption of a resolution on nuclear security in Ukraine . . . The control of Russian troops over Zaporizhzhya NPP is especially dangerous. ", - summed up Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
We will remind, on September 25 it was reported that Russians in the territory of Zaporizhzhya NPP are taught pilots FPV-ovary. As a result, they terrorize the population of Nikopol, said the head of the center Andriy Kovalenko. In fact, the NPP is a cover for the occupiers. On September 15, it was also reported that Russian invaders have equipped their base on the territory of Zaporizhzhya, but IAEA representatives do not notice it.
