The occupiers of the temporarily occupied Zaporizhzhia NPP are preparing to block Ukrainian personnel out, fearing a counter-offensive by the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
This was reported by NNEGC Energoatom.
According to the Ukrainian company, the invaders have already brought a lot of food and water to the plant. The NNEGC assumes that the occupiers will not let the plant's staff go after one of the next work shifts in order to hold them hostage.
Energoatom reminds that similar actions were already taken by the ruscists at the beginning of the full-scale invasion, when they closed a shift at ChNPP – then the invaders did not let the station staff go home for about a month.
Background. Earlier, Mind reported that the russians were preparing an evacuation plan for Rosatom employees at the ZNPP. They must provide a list of relatives and be ready to leave at the first signal.
