On the night of October 7, Russian drones were again recorded near the industrial site of the South Ukraine nuclear power plant. The flight distance of Shaруви from nuclear facilities was less than 10 kilometers.

This was reported by Energoatom.

It is noted that the cases of Russian drone captures have increased recently, which may indicate that the Russian Federation is preparing for strikes on Ukrainian nuclear infrastructure.

«The aggressor country takes these steps fully aware of the possible consequences. This is nuclear terrorism and intimidation of the whole world with a radiation accident,» emphasized Petro Kotin, head of Energoatom.

Energoatom provides information about each such fact to relevant institutions, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine sends notes to the International Atomic Energy Agency and informs domestic and international organizations.

It will be recalled that the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) reported the flights of Russian drones near the South Ukraine nuclear power plant.

It was also previously reported that on October 2, the South Ukraine Nuclear Power Plant concluded an agreement for the construction of engineering protection of critical elements of the plant for 595 million hryvnias.
