According to him, the internal crisis center at the NPP site has been dismantled and the Russian military is always stationed there, which is why it cannot perform its duties. The external crisis center located in Zaporozhye has no actual connection. That is, information about the security state of ZNPP does not reach there, because the invaders have disabled this communication.
“It is not yet realistic to assess the amount of damage caused by the occupation, this will be shown by the analysis after the work. However, today we are not talking about the risk of decommissioning due to the damage caused by the occupation. We have something that has not been lost of hope for the plant to return to safe operation after de-occupation,” added the head of the State Nuclear Regulatory Commission. .
Recall that on the night of March 9, the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant was completely de-energized as a result of rocket attacks by the Russian Federation. The station lost half a day for the sixth time during the occupation.
