Russia Urges West to Admit Ukraine Carried Out Zaporozhye Nuclear Plant Attacks
Analysts had explained to Sputnik that the Zaporozhye Plant is currently not generating electricity, therefore these strikes will not affect Russia's energy supply system in the new regions.
However, any disruption to one of the reactors could lead to the uncontrolled release of radioactive substances into the atmosphere.
Russian officials have castigated Ukraine's actions branding them "nuclear terrorism" and are urging the international community not to remain silent on this issue.
