At the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant, Russian invaders have begun preparations for the evacuation of Rosatom employees to Melitopol, the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine reported..

To avoid panic among the plant workers, preparations for the removal of Russian nuclear workers are carried out covertly. At the same time, the evacuation will take place accompanied by units of the National Guard, which in the morning set off in a column from Melitopol in the direction of Energodar.

The GUR notes that, according to Rosatom employees, it became known that in the event of an IAEA Mission arriving at the Zaporizhzhya NPP, part of the personnel is planned not to be allowed to enter the station.

“So far, a critical situation has already developed at ZNPP due to the fact that the occupiers do not allow part of the employees to enter the territory. In particular, the personnel responsible for fire safety,” Energoatom emphasized in turn..

Earlier, Russia did not deny plans to cut off the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant from the Ukrainian energy system and connect it to its own. For this, employees of Rosatom were brought to the station, who were supposed to find ways to solve such plans..
