KYIV, Aug 13 ― Ukraine and Russia accused each other yesterday of risking catastrophe by shelling Europe's largest nuclear power plant, occupied by Russian forces in a region expected to become one of the next big front lines of the war.
Kyiv has said for weeks it is planning a counteroffensive to recapture Zaporizhzhia and neighbouring Kherson provinces, the largest part of the territory Russia seized after its February 24 invasion and still in Russian hands. “Today the Ukrainian armed forces struck the last, the fourth, bridge linking the left and right banks. This means the Russians no longer have any possibility of bringing in new equipment,” Khlan said.Reuters could not confirm the reports independently.Russia's invasion of Ukraine has sent relations between the United States and Russia to a low point and on Friday a new warning was sent by Moscow about the rift deepening.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has urged the United States and other countries to give Russia that designation, accusing its forces of targeting civilians, which Moscow denies. “There is no nuclear power plant in the world that was designed to operate in a war situation,” said Mycle Schneider, coordinator of the World Nuclear Industry Status Report.
