This is interesting, is it because they are loosing territory or planning to blow it?
Russia is reducing its presence at the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, Ukraine’s military intelligence directorate (GUR) has claimed, with staff told to relocate to Crimea and military patrols scaled back.
The agency’s chief, Kyrylo Budanov, has alleged Moscow has approved a plan to blow up the station and has mined four out of six power units, as well as a cooling pond. Last week Ukraine’s president, Volodymyr Zelenskiy, said Russia was plotting a “terrorist attack”.
According to the GUR, several representatives of Russia’s state nuclear energy agency, Rosatom, have already left. Ukrainian employees who stayed at the plant and signed contracts with Rosatom had been told to evacuate by Monday, preferably to Crimea, it said.
Grossi asserted that he "didn't see that kind of development" on the ground, but also that "anything can happen, that is what worries me".
IAEA is not confirming it, but I think it's a stretch to get "pure deranged nonsense" from that quote.
Thinking that Russia would blow up a nuclear power plant that Russia controls is deranged nonsense.
They blew up a dam they controlled. why not a nuclear power plant?
...in your opinion. As per your link, the IAEA does not share your certainty.
In the opinion of any sane person, and what IAEA says is that there is no substance to the conspiracy theory being peddled here.
It is fascinating how personal biases shape our communications and beliefs.
i've seen this guy in many ukraine related threads shilling for the ruskies
Right, Russia just keeps blowing up their own pipelines dams and nuclear power plants. Imagine being a grown ass adult and actually believing that. When nord stream was blown up all the imbeciles in the west screeched that it was Russia who did it. Now slowly admissions are coming out that it wasn't Russia. Yet, here we are again each time a piece of infrastructure Russia controls, people inexplicably think that Russia destroyed it.
The leading theory with the nord stream pipeline explosion is that putin ordered it to make "business as usual" not an option for those in russias political sphere who would have prefered the resumption of gas to europe over Putins goals in Ukraine. no pipeline, no way back. ultimately no one knows for sure who did it but thanks for bringing it up.
"Now slowly admissions are coming out that it wasn't Russia."
nope. Russia is still the lead suspect.
Russia blew up the nova khakovka dam in an attempt to stop Ukrainians launching amphibious assaults accross the dniepr and taking their land back.
Now that Ukrainians have a foothold on the left bank of the dniepr near Kherson all of a sudden there is talk of a radiation release from the NNP conveniently placed westwards of kherson with easterly and south easterly prevailing winds.
Perhaps that's the leading theory on 4chan or wherever you get your news from, but none of the mainstream western media suggests anything of the sort. In fact, the latest western theory is actually that Ukraine did it:
Thanks for letting me know that there is no point continuing this discussion since I'm talking to a conspiracy theorist as opposed to a rational and informed person.
@lenux12343 I'd presume that #Putin will likely pull out of #Ukraine entirely if he doesn't win soon (within the next two-three weeks), looking at the support #Prigozhin was able to get among the citizens of #Russia

I guess they could blow it up soon. Horrifying.
This is pure deranged nonsense even IAEA says it https://www.france24.com/en/tv-shows/the-interview/20230629-iaea-saw-no-evidence-moscow-planning-attack-on-zaporizhia-nuclear-plant-but-anything-can-happen

probably a bit of both :/

Wanna bet?
I really hope they dont plan to blow it... this + fukushima putting radioactive water back to the sea can be ridiculously bad.
