Ukraine's State Nuclear Energy Corporation said russian artillery shelling of the Zaporozhia nuclear power plant would have serious consequences
On the evening of the 6th local time, the National Nuclear Energy Company of Ukraine issued an announcement that the Russian military shelled the Zaporozhia nuclear power plant in order to destroy its infrastructure and disconnect it from the Ukrainian power system, and to try to cause a lack of electricity in southern Ukraine. The announcement believes that the Russian military hopes to cause a nuclear radiation accident at the Zaporizhia nuclear power plant through shelling, and the Russian shelling will most likely not stop until this goal is achieved. The Ukrainian side calls on the United Nations, the International Atomic Energy Agency and the World Association of Nuclear Power Operators (WANO) to take concerted action to exert long-term pressure on Russia through the international community to withdraw its troops from the Zaporizhia nuclear power plant and ensure its complete demilitarization.
According to ukraine's State Nuclear Energy Corporation, the Russians not only laid mines along the coastline near the Zaporozhye cooling pool and near the adjacent Kakhovka Reservoir, but also placed military vehicles, weapons and explosives in the halls of Units 1 and 2, which is equivalent to laying mines next to two nuclear reactors at Europe's largest nuclear power plant, making the situation worse.
Ukraine's State Nuclear Energy Corporation says all of this is highly likely to cause a nuclear radiation catastrophe, affecting not only Ukraine but also europe as a whole. The Ukrainian side therefore reiterates its call on the United Nations, the International Atomic Energy Agency and the international community to take all necessary measures and to send a mission to the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant to ensure its demilitarization and to withdraw the Russian armed forces from the plant and the surrounding areas, in particular from the city of Energodar.

The Russian Defense Ministry accused the Kiev regime of provoking ukrainian nuclear energy facilities
The Russian Ministry of Defense issued a proclamation on the evening of the 6th, accusing the Kiev regime of systematically provoking Ukrainian nuclear energy facilities and threatening their security. On August 5, 2022, Ukrainian nationalists launched an artillery barrage of the Zaporozhia nuclear power plant during a scheduled staff shift, the announcement said. The shelling damaged two high-voltage power lines and a hydrogen pipeline, and also cut off water and electricity to more than 10,000 residents in the Zaporizhia region. The critical infrastructure of nuclear power plants has not been damaged only because the forces of the Russian armed forces have taken appropriate, appropriate and effective action to protect the plant facilities.
While stressing that the above-mentioned acts of the Ukrainian authorities should be regarded as acts of nuclear terrorism, United Nations officials continue to create obstacles to objective international monitoring by the management of the International Atomic Energy Agency of the state of the Zaporizhia state.
The Russian Defense Ministry said this is not the first time the Kiev regime has carried out similar provocations in places where there is a danger of radiation. The shelling of the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant by the Ukrainian armed forces was deliberate and protracted, posing a real threat not only to ukraine but also to the nuclear security of Europe. An accident at the Zaporizhia nuclear power plant would be a global man-made disaster, with radioactive contamination on a scale that would far exceed the consequences of the accidents at the Chernobyl and Fukushima nuclear power plants.
The Russian side once again calls on the United Nations, the International Atomic Energy Agency and other international organizations to condemn the criminal acts committed by the Kiev authorities and to take immediate measures to prevent provocations by their nuclear facilities in Ukraine.
On August 5, the Zaporizhian nuclear power plant in Ukraine was shelled twice, and Russia and Ukraine blamed each other for causing the two attacks.
