The Russian occupiers decided to simulate an attack on the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant using drones. They tried to blame it on Ukrainian defenders. This was reported by Andriy Yusov, a representative of the Main Directorate of Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, during a telethon.

He said that there is a new wave of provocations by Russia against ZNPP. This is nothing new. The purpose of such provocations is to accuse Ukraine.

Yusov reminded that it was the Russians who occupied Zaporizhzhia NPP and deployed troops and equipment there, mined the territory of the plant, and regularly launch attack drones there.

"Today (Russia - ed.) decided to use FPV drones to simulate a shelling allegedly from Ukraine. Ukraine's position is unequivocal: we do not take any actions or provocations against nuclear facilities. The aggressor must leave the nuclear power plant," the GUR representative added.
