KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — Officials at the Russian-controlled Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant said that the site was attacked Sunday by Ukrainian military drones, including a strike on the dome of the plant’s sixth power unit.

According to the plant authorities, there was no critical damage or casualties and radiation levels at the plant were normal after the strikes.

The plant’s six reactors have been shut down for months, but it still needs power and qualified staff to operate crucial cooling systems and other safety features.

......

In Russia, a girl died and four other people were wounded when the debris of a downed Ukrainian drone fell on a car carrying a family of six people in Russia’s Belgorod region bordering Ukraine, regional Gov. Vyacheslav Gladkov said.

The part about how you can’t just shut down a nuclear reactor and walk always stands out for me.

[packagingguy]

This doesn’t seem like a very good idea.

I think Russia now has permission to attack Ukraine’s nuclear power plants.

Go Ukraine!

Seems that the Neocon plan is to make Donbass, and perhaps part of Russia simply UNINHABITABLE, if they can’t seize it for themselves.

UNINHABITABLE

Uke Nazis using NATO weapons to create a nuclear pollution disaster.

Standard GloboHomoNazi actions.

There isn't anything NATO and the Ukrainians won't resort to, including trying to cause a meltdown at a nuclear power plant.

This after Ukraine has targeted civilians and used them as human shields and after we blew up the Nord Stream pipelines.

It's beyond belief that anyone can't see they are siding with evil if they are supporting Ukraine in this proxy war.

They’re trying to make Saddam Hussein look good.

They’re succeeding.

"In Russia, a girl died and four other people were wounded when the debris of a downed Ukrainian drone fell on a car carrying a family of six people in Russia’s Belgorod region bordering Ukraine..."

Too bad the family wasn't delivering food for that International Kitchen Ethnic Food relief organization. Joe Biden would be demanding that Ukraine surrender.

Do newer designs have less attentiveness needed after scramming or orderly shut downs?
