Provocation against the Armed Forces: Energodar Mayor told whether there was a threat from a fire at the ZPP

According to the mayor, the fire arose in the cards that were used for additional cooling of water in the reservoir-cooler for NPP reactors. They can not burn themselves unless you bring something combustible. The fire at the Zaporizhzhya NPP, which occurred on the evening of August 11, is the "provocation of Russian invaders", probably aimed at discrediting the Armed Forces of Ukraine. This was reported by Energodar Mayor Dmitry Orlov in a comment to Radio Liberty.

According to Orlov, the fire arose in the cards that were used for additional cooling of water in the reservoir-cooler for NPP reactors. However, these designs have not been functioning for a long time because the units are in a cold state. He emphasized that the hours themselves could not burn unless something combustible was brought there. "If the occupiers have not been applied there, which can burn. There are exclusively metal structures and reinforced concrete.

Therefore, there was nothing physically there," - said the mayor. Orlov also did not rule out that this provocation may be another attempt to accuse the Ukrainian military at the NPP attacks. "Probably the occupiers make such provocations there in order to attract attention and accuse the armed forces of Ukraine. To the existing units, to nuclear units, there is a significant distance - about a kilometer to the nearest power unit. Therefore, in terms of some nuclear radiation hazard , they are not.

We will remind, on August 12, a representative of the Council of the Federation of Russia Dmitry Rogozin addressed the Ukrainian side with a "warning" that it is not necessary to try to return the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant captured by the Russians, and accused the Ukrainian command of the preparation of man -made catastrophe. Earlier, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky stated that Russia was using a captured manner for blackmail all over the world.
