Quote from Kirillov: “We would like to draw your attention to the fact that if the negative development of the situation related to the shelling of the nuclear power plant by Ukraine continues, the issue of switching units 5 and 6 to the cold reserve may be considered, which will lead to the shutdown of the Zaporizhzhia NPP.

Details: Russia occupied the ZNPP in the early stage of the war and kept military equipment and ammunition on its territory. It also has been repeatedly launching attacks from the territory of the ZNPP.
