Ukraine is targeting Russian soldiers who fire at the Russian-controlled Zaporizhia nuclear power plant or use it as a base to fire from, President Volodymyr Zelensky said on Saturday.
“Every Russian soldier who either shoots at the station, or shoots using the station as cover, must understand that he is becoming a target for our intelligence agents, for our special services, for our military,” Zelensky said on the evening of Saturday.
Zelensky repeated accusations that Russia is using the plant as “nuclear blackmail”
Ukraine’s defense intelligence service earlier warned of new Russian “provocations” around the plant, while the exiled mayor of the town where the plant is located said it had come under fresh Russian shelling.
However, Russian-appointed local official Vladimir Rogov wrote on Telegram that Ukrainian forces shelled the factory.
Ukrainian presidential adviser Mykhailo Podoliak accused Russia of “hitting the part of the nuclear plant where the energy that supplies southern Ukraine is produced.”
“The goal is to disconnect us from (the factory) and blame the Ukrainian military for it,” Podoliak wrote on Twitter.
