Why It Matters
Zaporozhye NPP was previously left without external power supply and depended on diesel fuel.
MOSCOW, September 13 - RIA Novosti. Kyiv hit tankers with diesel fuel for the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant, knowing full well that it is vital for the station, said Alexei Likhachev, general director of the Rosatom state corporation.
On Friday, the Kiev regime carried out a series of combined attacks on fuel tankers with diesel fuel for the Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant, Likhachev said. Two Russian soldiers were killed in the strike, and some were wounded, some seriously, Likhachev said.
“The Kyiv organizers of these attacks committed this crime, knowing full well that we are talking specifically about the delivery of fuel and that this fuel is vital for the station, especially taking into account the fact that in August-September it remained without external power supply for almost three weeks and “sat” exclusively on diesel engines due to Kyiv’s provocations,” Likhachev said, as quoted by Rosatom.
