Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andriy Sybiga reported that, according to intelligence, Russia is preparing strikes on Ukrainian nuclear power facilities.
“According to Ukrainian intelligence, the Kremlin is preparing strikes on critical nuclear power facilities in Ukraine on the eve of winter.

Sybiha noted that the destruction of these facilities creates a high risk of a nuclear incident that will have global consequences. The Ukrainian special services have already passed on all the information to their partners. The IAEA was also informed.
“Russia is the only country that has seized a nuclear power plant in Europe, blackmailing the world. The Ukrainian Peace Formula contains a clause on ensuring radiation and nuclear safety. We call on all international organizations and states that respect the UN Charter to prevent the terrorist country scenario,” the minister wrote.
