In Crimea, environmentalists call to condemn Kyiv for provocations at the nuclear power plant in Zaporozhye

“We condemn any provocative actions that create the preconditions for an environmental disaster on the continent. <…> Using the example of the Zaporozhye region, we see systemic provocations on the part of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in relation to the Zaporozhye NPP. We call on all sensible forces, all like-minded people in the field of environmental safety to unite and stop the criminal actions of the Ukrainian authoritiessays the resolution.

It is noted that the shelling repeatedly led to the blackout of the Zaporizhia NPP, damaged the cooling system, and caused damage to nuclear fuel storage facilities. In this regard, a real threat has repeatedly arisen that can lead to extremely negative consequences not only for the environment of Russia, but also for European countries.

Once again we call on the international community to pay attention to the existing environmental problems mentioned above. We call on all competent relevant structures to take full responsibility for maintaining the ecological balance of the planetthe resolution emphasizes.

Since the beginning of April, the situation in the Zaporizhzhya NPP region has worsened, drones of the Ukrainian Armed Forces are periodically spotted in the sky, and an air threat regime is declared. Several times Ukrainian troops attacked the territory of the station and the city of Energodar.
