Invaders intimidate Ukrainians with ZNPP explosion to seize initiative in war, Deputy Minister says
However, the Ministry of Defence does not rule out the possibility of a real terrorist attack
The invaders are intimidating Ukrainians by blowing up Zaporizhzhya NPP to turn the tide of the war in their favour.
This was reported by Hanna Maliar, Deputy Minister of Defence of Ukraine.
"It should be understood that a terrorist country is capable of any, even completely reckless, actions, which it will then try to pass off as someone else's," the official explained.
Maliar added that a scenario with a real terrorist attack at a nuclear station is possible. However, in order to minimise the possible consequences, emergency services have been training for several days in the Dnipro, Zaporizhzhia, Kherson and Mykolaiv oblasts in case of the Zapotizhzhia plant explosion.
Background. Mind previously reported that russians are preparing a provocation at ZNPP to blame the Ukrainian Armed Forces. Explosives were planted on the roof of two power units to simulate Ukrainian shelling.
