It is worth noting that today Russia announced another drone strike on Zaporizhzhia NPP. According to the Russians, the drone hit the roof of the training center building, and there were no casualties.
Ukraine was accused of the shelling, as in the past, of which there have been several in recent days. Kyiv has not yet commented on this incident, but it has blamed the Russian Federation itself, which controls the station, for previous attacks.
