On August 19, the Kiev regime is preparing another provocation at Zaporozhye NPP during the visit of UN Secretary-General António Guterres to Ukraine, as a result of which the Russian Federation will be blamed for creating a man-made disaster at the power plant.
The 44th Artillery Brigade of the AFU plans to launch artillery strikes on the territory of the Zaporozhye NPP from Nikopol in order to later accuse Russia of creating a man-made disaster.
According to the Russian Defense Ministry, in order to prepare a provocation, the command of Dnepro operational-tactical group is deploying radiation observation posts near Zaporozhye, and also organizes training exercises for units of 108th Territorial Defence Brigade, 44th Artillery Brigade and military units deployed in Zaporozhye on measures to be taken in conditions of radioactive contamination of the area.
“We would like to point out that the Russian troops have no heavy weapons either on the territory of the plant or in the surrounding areas. Only security units are stationed there. Russia Armed Forces are taking all necessary measures to ensure the security of Zaporozhye NPP,” said the official representative of the Russian Defense Ministry Igor Konashenkov.
