British intelligence called the main risk factors for the occupation of the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant by the Russian invaders.
Russia’s occupation of the Zaporizhzhya nuclear power plant poses risks to the operation of one of the reactors. About that reported in the latest UK intelligence report.
Intelligence officials cited satellite images from August 21, showing that the Russians maintained a reinforced military presence at the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant, and that the occupiers’ armored personnel carriers were deployed 60 meters away. from the fifth reactor.
Apparently, the enemy tried to hide the equipment by placing it under air pipes and bridges. The British note that Russia is ready to use any military activity of Ukraine for propaganda purposes.
While occupants are in the facility, the main risks to reactor operation are likely to remain breaches of the reactor’s cooling systems, damage to the backup power source, or errors by pressure workers.
Earlier, Ukraine called on the UN for the demilitarization of the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant and the placement of a permanent IAEA mission there.
It was also reported that the invaders shot the nuclear waste of the ZNPP. As a result of mortar strikes on ash dumps, clouds of radioactive dust are formed, which are carried by the wind around Energodar.
