Nuclear Security Threat: Shahamed Russian Flew Over Rivne NPP

This is not the first such case. Energoatom still reported the spans of the UAV near the Ukrainian NPP. On the night of September 26, a shock unmanned apparatus at a critically low height flew near the Rivne NPP industrial platform. Energoatom reported about it. "Again, Russian troops threaten the nuclear security of Ukrainian NPPs. Each such fact" Energoatom "informs relevant institutions, because no one has the right to violate the principles of nuclear and radiation safety," the statement reads.

This is not the first time that Russia is in danger of Ukrainian atomic objects, threatens the security of NPPs, intensifying energy terror. In particular, the flight of a shock unmanned apparatus was recorded on the night of September 22 next to the Khmelnytsky NPP site. In total, on September 13, Energoatom wrote that more than 100 Russian UAVs and missiles flew in less than a month near the Ukrainian NPP.

Earlier, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Andriy Sibiga noted that on the eve of winter, Russia is preparing strikes on critical objects of Ukraine's nuclear energy. Open distribution devices of nuclear power plants and transmission substations may be under the impact of the enemy. This poses a high risk of nuclear incident.

President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky also stated the strikes on three nuclear powerful stations on September 24 during a speech at a meeting of the UN General Assembly. The corresponding evidence is in the head of the Ukrainian state. He added that the behavior of the Russians shows that they will not stop or protect the civilian population.
