The occupiers again damaged the line to the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, which was repaired by Ukrenergo specialists on Sunday.

Reliable power supply to the Chernobyl nuclear power plant is critical from the point of view of nuclear safety, so emergency crews are forced to go to the danger zone again and repair the damage.

Comment: Energoatom press service :

On March 13, the Ukrenergo repair crew repaired the high-voltage power line that supplies the Chernobyl nuclear power plant and the city of Slavutych, and at 7:07 p.m.

However, these works could not be completed because the occupiers soon damaged the line again. “The repair team of NEC” Ukrenergo “is forced to go again to the occupied territory near the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, to look for and eliminate new damage,” the company added.

Ukrenergo emphasizes that the Chornobyl NPP is an important facility that cannot be left without a reliable energy supply. The power supply of Slavutych residents also depends on the line that supplies the nuclear power plant.

After all, this will help avoid a repeat of the Chernobyl disaster and save the lives and health of people who may fall victim to it, “Ukrenergo said in a statement.
