don't you mentioned this kind of when it feels like therapy the when the russian army captured the turnover plant that familiar fear returned the fear of a nuclear disaster shuttle on business, the turn nobel nuclear power plant, it's a household name. the world still remembers that your noble disaster of 1986 the trigger of explosion became the largest nuclear disaster in the world history. but russians captured after noble and early 2022 was just the overture. a short while later, vladimir putin soldiers marched on europe's largest nuclear power,
6:04 am
or plant separation, the house secure or nuclear power plants in war time. which the state is the new care safety and security of the biggest boot about that you can call and russia has also threatened to use nuclear weapons. that's why do we need a well, that there's no russian not bluffing. this is the story of how this upper region nuclear power plant and its workers became hostages. based on weight was not the worst when they failed to find weapons quickly or we put them in that there was a so what do they began to torture meeting? events and ukraine that would change europe. the
6:05 am
my name is pablo. i'm a ukrainian filmmaker was born in 1981 and keep my parents and grandparents were soviet scientists. i was 4 years old on the day of the turn, noble disaster, the and this is my home city. keep on february 24th 2022. in the early hours of this morning, the russian president vladimir putin launched an all out assault on ukraine. and to the next sort of push it didn't matter. you pull the eastern border region hockey's, the capital came from russian tanks and moving into ukraine from all directions is
6:06 am
conf. financing has it rented when you look bill. so when you say those, whoever tries to stand in our way should know that russia's response will be immediately us find involved consequences that you have never experienced in your history seemingly overnight, a large and free european country was facing a war of aggression from its neighbor and we ukrainian suddenly found ourselves stuck in traffic together with our kids, our families, and our dreams. but also with our fears for the biggest nuclear power plant in europe. that's when the world learned how to pronounce the long name separation. the is that the region nuclear power plant lives and is that the region of last in the south of the country near the city of and, and hold on. and then the pro river, the huge caught hold, cut them is just 130 kilometers away.
6:07 am
the before the invasion, the plan produced 20 percent of ukraine's electricity. these days, the separation is often in the headlines. but the people who work there are rarely heard the said he's on your used to be responsible for the spent fuel storage facility as operations. now live in t yep. okay. mostly like when i woke up as usual to start work, but at this i'm going to go to i had breakfast, drink coffee, and got ready vanco cover. but i knew how to juggle that when i realized a full scale invasion of you cream was it was under way something of thought and then your real pain. this is another witness who was at the plant when the
6:08 am
russian invasion began. he wishes to remain anonymous for safety reasons. for my friend from harkey called me and said we're under attack. a military base right near me has been bombed officials. i said that can't be true. what are you talking about? and he said, believe me, you'd better get out of here. it's why is fremont? russian military vehicles have invaded the key of regions. the enemy has advanced through the village of border crossing the troops of the occupying forces into the 10 noble exclusions on from the territory of fellow ruse. the so much to give us or we were so shocked. we knew that we could face the same situation across the boards, the you'd be like, clothes that works at the tour,
6:09 am
noble nuclear power plant. that day she had gotten ready for what she thought would be a routine shift. lots, but i don't know what the home is a spill. i'm listening on february 23rd. i began my shift. i work in security are both only up for that. so it's my job to keep an eye on the planned and the equipment. and that is a lovely, a little cold at 8 am. the morning crew did not arrive to take over from us. let me know that i left the hospital. there were lots of planes and helicopters flying over from the direction of bella roofs. and then at 3 45 pm, we saw on our monitor's how men dressed in black, we're entering the site and politic office for the presidential office of ukraine has confirmed that russian troops of sees the to nothing new power pounds they sent me. i started
6:10 am
destroying our equipment, they broke down the fences and just climbed over them. suddenly there were lots of vehicles and strangers around, bought their children. they should remember. this is that you know, to nuclear power plant. it's a household name, it was the 1st one you will need. they came in and said, now everyone will pay attention to us. that's how we became hostages. calendar, as they started looting everything totally. so they came down, doors, through tables, cabinets, equipment, everything out of the windows. so it was like, if i can't have it and me neither can anyone else except the so just wanted to touch the isotopes, they'd say, let me touch the radiation. what do you say to that one?
6:11 am
for the russian troops to start essentially going through that area. and at least from what i had read, actually stealing and equipment and things out of that. my reaction was this is pure stupidity that your noble disaster on april 26th. 1986 the i remember that soon afterwards i was told to pack my things not just fast, but immediately and that i wasn't allowed to take any of my favorite toy cars. the. the trim level explosion became the largest nuclear disaster in the world history, which contaminated the good part of ukrainian territory, rebel or russian, some parts of western russia. and so it can affect it. the parts of europe as well,
6:12 am
with no official information. rumors soon spread that it wasn't safe to stay and keep railway tickets sold out immediately. we bought the last airplane tickets available, the number of key reasons for that. one of them and probably the key one. what are the major issues of is the raptor, the so called r v m car, reactor? basic design of the reactor was taken from the military industrial complex. it was designed to produce plutonium enriched uranium for the nuclear bombs. and for veterans and the design over act and was top secret that was when i learned the word it costs. yeah. my grandfather couldn't come with us as a physicist, he was not given authorization by the k g
6:13 am
b to leave the key region the that nuclear energy accident rule into the health and lives of countless people. it widespread effects soon became apparent across europe, the, the, the comp done somebody's humans. one of a sudden the strange reports from scandinavia, i think it was on april, the 27th or 28th of increased radiation levels that no one could explain for days the government in moscow imposed on information blackouts. the it wasn't until mid may that the public was informed of the actual extent of the
6:14 am
accident. the oh, sure who the were on the to the russian invasion, the higher tier region was perhaps the hardest hit. not car cushion was to some of the best fighting and assume a region bulk tanica had suffered massive russian shedding all day. and the fighting is ongoing. the you an estimate of 100000 internally displaced. people may well be too low to go from this. after the russian invasion, ukraine was the global news story. a war of aggression in violation of international law was taking place in europe. for the 1st time since the end of the cold war. there was the threat of a nuclear attack and a civilian nuclear power plant was about to be caught up in the fighting. now
6:15 am
through the end of what struck the corner of the homes are on the 2nd day of the invasion february 25th. and we realize that the chances of this operational power plant being captured for very high levels. and we understood that we were already pretty much surrendered or moved from a mark with himself, what portion the to the police square, the management of this app or egypt plan started constantly calling meetings. my supervisor took part in these solutions. they discussed what to do if there was damage to the infrastructure and how to respond in the case of showing some show up still in these anti crisis centers, the units were tasked with getting ready with reviewing documents and developing new measures, which this work was going on all the time, so both of us the
6:16 am
most of the residents of i know for don, we're getting ready for the occupiers to arrive for the send the mayor of enough for doc to mutual or last played a key role in the global situation of the city is stable, but unfortunately remains tense full of businesses operating. normally, the military and law enforcement officers are all in position and ready to defend. our city is that safe? there's been a lot wake we manage to set up several and provides default vacations, so store inside local residents organize themselves with their, against this launch scan aggression. and believe that and hold off belongs to ukraine. ok, you know, more than 10000 citizens gather to submit something for you to share. some people may to a country send the troops to ukraine by the moment of which,
6:17 am
pushing one said, why do we need a world in which there's no rush? and we'll come, you're just given your pricing then the less everything fly, you know, directions the this for yours between february 24th and 20. the people were constantly gathering at the entrance to the city of an old dog. they brought several trucks instead of concrete blocks to seal off the road or between walkable list them all in the street. as far as i recall, some of the residents even welded together tank barriers. those with then transported to the check point at the entrance to the whole document. wherever
6:18 am
the people came without weapons, they just had flags up to me. but this happened 3 times. and 3 times we managed to force to call them at times phenomenal vehicles to turn back at around 3 o'clock in the afternoon, they came in a launch con boy of around 100 vehicles. within this day, thinking about it a little when they opened fire onto the truck, going from a tank, a few kilometers away. this bottle at the city entrance. if you can call it a bottle. last it's several hours. then they drove through to the power plant and used to put you on a brief hold on a sponsor. the invaders had to drive through the city in order to access the only road leading to the plant. rental hope there is nothing was produced on march 3rd, around $2200.00 people came to work at the separation of power plant for each from that was a reduced workforce. so normally there would have been $11000.00 employees or small
6:19 am
. this was one of the management's anti crisis measures from because list when we were doing our work, when at some point in the afternoon, it became clear that we might not be able to go home. that day will bring a position. it was decided that all the staff who were at this operation plant would stay at work until the situation became safer, especially supports we proceeded to, we were constantly messaging and calling our families in the city of the gloom levels and the problem of and then the vehicles was driving and the direction of the 1st control point of this operation plan was inscrutable. but the actual attack began around 10 pm. the
6:20 am
worst just was before we were inside the plant. the whole time management told us to stay in the shelters sold the palm later, the occupiers retreated head. i don't know. we had the small moment of joy where we thought, maybe this is it. so maybe they'll stop now under the moon, but they were just regrouping pump the walls, the huge cc me with during the next wave of attacks shot from a tank practically destroyed the 3rd floor of the training center. so we're 20 special forces. soldiers were deployed to the purchase. that's pretty much, it's a direct attack on a nuclear facilities and seemed unsinkable. so only a small number of a lead soldiers remained at the power plant and in the city of an ad hole. that of all regular troops were needed to defend the strategically important cities of have
6:21 am
sun and separation. the we have the radio on the ship to supervisor at the power plant kept saying, stop byron, you're shooting at the separation nuclear power plant. you're risking a nuclear disasters, but the, the, if i remember correctly, the loudspeakers fell silent at around 3 o'clock in the morning. the shelling stopped and we sat holding our breath listening for more items. we didn't know what was happening. we designed mission reports by 5 am on march. 4th, the separation nuclear power plant was under russian control by witnesses reported
6:22 am
that 3 people were killed. 2 wounded and between 30 and 40 taken prisoner while trying to hold off the attack. according to ukraine's state nuclear power plant operator and that whole lot them, most of them are still in captivity. there's these russian troops have a tang separately as your, its largest nuclear power plant or an incident here could be 6 times worse than to an over power plant is in the front line of the continents. bloody is more in decades after us and for us as a tech does a police up class in the middle of the night, setting a nearby training facility fire. the beginning of the ductwork time is broken up in the night, but i immediately received the videos where you could see the fighting around the plant. could we weren't able to give the old plan to the experts relatively quickly because the safety of the plants had not been affected. but the fact that there was fight doing and shooting at a nuclear power plant that was
6:23 am
a real chunk. so in this wash and heavy to understand what's at stake today, it's important to understand of the role that nuclear power has played in my country's history the why the 92 and sixty's, ukrainian economy was developing quite rapidly. but there was lot of energy sources . and the nuclear power became a solution so it is about the population. it is about the development of economy and need for sources of energy, which at that time, $6.00 to $7.00 to is a new class. and like the right way to go the
6:24 am
nuclear power plants like that for risha enter noble what a source of great pride for the soviet leadership. and while they couldn't be showcased during the annual, made a parades, other nuclear achievements could be the when the soviet union collapsed. ukraine inherited the nuclear power plants, and the nuclear weapons on its territory. along with all the associated risks is still half like during the cold war to a new class super powers, the united states and russia. for a short period of time, there was a 3rd one. the name of that country was you pray,
6:25 am
those nuclear weapons were inches, they are like a gun that you could go ahead and use. they didn't have the launch approvals for, for those nuclear weapons. and for the most part, what i believe is those nuclear weapons were nothing but a norm as burden to ukraine. because the most dangerous part of nuclear weapons is when you take them apart and to take apart a 1000 plus nuclear weapons in a country that doesn't have all the capabilities and facilities for that is dangerous. ukraine in general, wanted to play the role that it's going to be responsible country the which is why. on december 5th, 1994 ukraine signed what went down in history. as the budapest memorandum the
6:26 am
united states, russia and the united kingdom, signed an agreement with a government in ukraine that ukrainians would give up. the nuclear weapons they had inherited from the soviet union in return for a number of things. and the most important parts of the in return for that would be to be guaranteed the sovereignty of ukraine, not to use nuclear weapons against ukraine, not to be threatened with nuclear weapons. and that's what russia violated pressure became the main perpetrator and, and the violator of the best memorandum attacking ukraine. trust and training for team them in training and training to it's not only that it violated past memorandum essentially puts into question anything that any country would ever
6:27 am
assign to have another country not develop nuclear weapons. so to give up nuclear weapons, if you give them that sort of a guarantee and rush, a broke, that guarantee, totally irresponsible, and it has reverberations much beyond you cram that 1st morning after the occupation of europe's largest nuclear power plant was full of uncertainty for the employees the your permit though, which means i remember that at 8 am we were told to leave the shelter and head to the 1st and checkpoint multiple possible most. i think there were between 15 and 18 of us. so we set off and i remember how quiet it was. as we walked in shipping the, the, the ship, the,
6:28 am
the, you blood, runs cold, your walking and thinking, what will i do when i meet the russian soldiers? how will they behave? will they shoot me dead or not for scanners to dfcs you the new shift came to relieve us at around 10 am we made our way to the 2nd check point with the job for your call. uh i came to this upper region. you clear planet? 2 to relieve the colleagues who are there from the morning of march, 3rd by it is to noon on march 4th, for the whole batteries and a matter of, i'm not sure of the law. my job was show we say, to assess the damage to the buildings and may and facilities fall under the jurisdiction of the nuclear safety department. and my cord is, uh, competitors provide me with the most perfect, the, the incidence gate and the training center had been destroyed. the administrative
6:29 am
offices were damaged. the russian army was setting up a military base on the grounds of the nuclear plants. the . we immediately understood the enormous risks that could be derived from the fact that the blind had been occupied by the russian forces, which could make these a target. in a military conflict, vladimir putin meanwhile issued another threat. this time directed at nato joy. all of this could really lead to a conflict where nuclear weapons are used for doing that would mean the destruction of civilization and civil is that's don't they understand that you with when you, when you march, but the
6:30 am
space shuttle ceased, we met more and more russian military personnel at the power plant and i even had a brief conversation with soldiers from a special unit from a set you see some of the was they called everyone brother. they'd say, brother, where's the canteen does and so on. like the temperature saw sky, some thought the occupation also really change in life and the city of and hold off for hours of multiple bites or yeah, most of us was up for example, my wife and i had to stand in line for us 6 hours is to so you're just to buy bread is exactly exactly them from the corporate differently, but there was also a ray of hope at that time for safety. the russian military has lift that, you know, bone euclid, power plant revolt, say russian soldiers and now marching into columns towards the ukrainian better we
6:31 am
see in border with over to call. and we waited a long time for that moment within 600 hours. though, a long, long time. it felt like an attorney cheese every day was the same over and over the which i will call a toyota. and then one day later, our intercom rang and we heard a voice say, opened the door where the ukrainian armed forces, when i got to the so the polio to respond. when i go to my apartment that day, i just lay down on my bed and told myself, i'm home. the,
6:32 am
as the main reason of taking over the true level nuclear power plant was just secure, the advance of the russian troops started toward the cave. and eventually, once they realized what the in procession of they were using the true level of nuclear power plant as a shelter they assumed and assumed correctly that ukrainians would not attack the nuclear power plant and really turned it into the logistical base. and one of the centers of the offensive against keys, a once turnover was free, the head of the international atomic energy agency came to meet the workers
6:33 am
read your posts, please send a message to 0. we. i have respect to everybody and police. absolutely, we don't know it's we do not only have respect for you, we have to be ration for you because you did exactly what you were expected to do. you show the professionalism, carriage, of course, patriotism, but you'd be the right thing. meanwhile, the staff of that the retail were still working under coercion. any hope that they would be liberated quickly have faded the way you run a nuclear facility is inherently dangerous. so you have to run it right. and now to go in and have to react to operators, have to work at gunpoint. i mean, this is totally against everything we've learned about nuclear safety. it's totally
6:34 am
against everything. the russians have talked about nuclear safety, the there's liter, somewhere around the middle of 2022. right now if even if it's got shot appeared at the plant on which french are they not caught, child is thought to have close links to the kremlin. she currently works for russia, estate owns nuclear entity rules at home, which has been operating this operation plan since its occupation your office is main. busy goal was to persuade the training personnel to sign a contract with rosa tom sneezing and he would say, you see there is a ukrainian chair and a rushing chair. but we, my colleagues are sitting on the nuclear chairs, the news,
6:35 am
the be square. we are committed to safety. we are neither part of the russian aggression, nor are we defending ukrainians. we're committed to safety. we have to think about nuclear safety 1st and foremost because i am here with you at the power plant. you all could swarm unless he's a convincing speaker and speaks very calmly without emotion. you know, during the conversation gradually wraps himself around you like a snake last above his water and then suddenly he has you in his grim exam, your whole slide. so the workers responded in different ways to the rhetoric, which was basically a finley concealed threat. the international atomic energy agency was still trying to gain access to the power plant occupied by russian forces. the situation. this tough of the plant has
6:36 am
from the very beginning being one of the most pressing point, obviously being at our territory which is occupied by another country beyond the situation of the nuclear power plant is extremely traumatic. reset is complete. the out to physical integrity of the place has not been respected that was showing at the beginning of the war. what's the state is the new test, safety and security of the biggest boot about planting date. european con special operations forces linked to ukraine's intelligent service, trying to liberate the area around the nuclear power plant. 3 times. the 1st attempt was in august to 2022 ukrainian forces cross the cock costco reservoir, but they were forced to retreat to more unsuccessful landing attempts fall over
6:37 am
at the end of august, a team from the i a set off for those app or reach a power plant it took us a long time to be able to go the interview. when we went, i led to that mission on september 1st 2022. so it took me like 6 months to be able to go to the visa war. and the plant is at the front of the line. there is security,
6:38 am
the presence that the forces off if you see is on but so all of that there, you know, subsidies. yeah. province. you may have the situations where the security people will say, well, you cannot do this so you can't do this or this is dangerous, but we don't want you to go to a certain part of the time the i was showing the rules also a very the cold, where fresh fuel is stored and this plays, it was quite amazing. had very be close on the rooftop of these uh, building which host lots of them coming to you during his visit. but i
6:39 am
feel good. i'll see you with showing a missile. and i, a employee said that the angle of impact indicated it had been fired from russian positions. but the man rush, i had a pointed to manage the occupied plan, but an outcome to claim that these were ukrainian missiles that changed the direction just before landing the moment we said we never left i left a 1st deployment mission of experts. and then these have been rotating, is they, there they sleep, there, they keep, they are, they weren't there for a month or less. and then the location of mazda believe we all had high hopes and high
6:40 am
expectations for this mission. and when raphael groceries visited the power plant to start, we thought things would change the relationships that we would finally be able to breathe a sigh of relief. and you know, the greatest caper sloan. but the training and staff had practically no opportunity to talk to raphael grossi or the other members of the i a mission. you know, i was among those who became increasingly disappointed with each visit. by the i a, you say abuse. they would come for court fax from you see, drop reports are ridiculous, but it wouldn't lead anywhere to keys view more. what's the pressure on the staff remain? can you please, can i go to some of the key spots the ukraine? is that the reason nuclear power plant was knocked offline on thursdays due to showing you tax associated nearby high voltage power lines. and the account was
6:41 am
shut down yesterday all through a power failure to thousands upon thousands of residents in the region. after nearby power lines were destroyed, unit 6, the last reactor is still in operation and separation was disconnected from the grid unit 6 had previously supplied the other 5 units with electricity so that they could remain in a safe, cold state. what they want to do is they wanted to control the electricity. they wanted to make sure the ukrainians didn't have access to the electricity. so. so what i have called it is, i had mentioned before that, that nuclear terrorism is, is really important and worries some despite the ongoing presence of the i a e, a inspectors, it's clear the supposedly stable situation could deteriorate at any time
6:42 am
the, there are 2 major spoke person for russia and russian black male tactics. one is president for just yourself. looks to the use of nuclear weapons in different ways, but doesn't talk about that directly. and then the former president of russia mentioning that, if not surely, talks about that open. russia has repeatedly sought to spread fear in this area. and then you believe this is menon lawson. and those were trying to blackmail us with nuclear weapons. should know that the wind can turn in their direction as well . the circle of your last of awareness and then it happened on september 12th 20. 22 were
6:43 am
pretty much when i was arrested at work a little more to have missed up or you drove me to my home 1st, my neighbor boys where is little more desperate shots on my part farrah the dark or the more shame go and my wife and children had already left for ukrainian control territory were what we might be comfortable in that that ability. okay. yeah. let's get that out as far as i understood for you or for their main purpose of that search was to look for western school when that's what you always had it through mind, which they hope to find in my apartment. i have published on williams, but it was not the button that no but worship felt a bit, but when they failed to find weapons quickly. so again, they began to torture me booked or something like that. and the whole, they put a bag over my head. well, i pressed to hold iron on my chest,
6:44 am
that's what it was with grammar. after that, it took me to a cell, or there were say, 10 to 20 prisoners in that room. this up here, instead of the iron, which they began using electricity. property, we use electricity as a method of torture. miss profitable and fierceness. i'm report walter over my body will scarlet to increase the effect of our door for pressure. but a hold of the the more something that doesn't mean to have no idea how long you're going to be in a situation like that. it's not for the simple. no, i knew that i was there from september. 12th of october, 27th, was over there for some bill murphy, and they put me in
6:45 am
a car and started driving with my number, which means they read me an order, but i was to be deported from the occupied territories. george was a boy when they thought it or okay, low it and they gave me my passport and told me to walk towards the territory held around by ukraine. 3030. it's been throwing me. ok. this is a for months now. russia has been deliberately bombing power plants and direct tricity facilities, according to official figures around hall. so if you cranes, energy infrastructure has been destroyed is these key data but nice russian strikes on the energy sector and power plants have not stumped for a single day. the week, right, for now, just like in recent days, the overall situation means it's necessary to severely restricts the use of electricity intensive devices at peak times. or why please use the points of
6:46 am
invincibility shelter while the repairs continue. you can warm up there, the need to use it was a normal working day. i was working from home, doing something or other for an equal items when there was a knock at the door. for a long time, i didn't want to open it, only for the moment i did, i realized that was it. there were 3 men armed with assault rifles and wearing bol . the claws us both close. they said my name for me is that you to keep the key. yes, we're coming in. we like the which they began searching the house of sold for their most pressing. question was why haven't you sign the contract with your qualified professional equal difficult one. why are you sitting around at home to use? the power plant is in danger spread. see we up or because i started crying and
6:47 am
promised you guys, i understand. i'll sign the contract at that moment. and i only had one goal to pull the wool over their eyes so that i wouldn't end up in a torture. so you put personalized saying like a bird made up. stories said i was neutral to tom was but yeah, the economy fun. yeah. should eventually they letting me go on, but said, don't kid yourself, my friend to do, we are being watched. we know everything about you was my late, but the, even when you go home, you are being followed the solution. is it the boy? yes. ready the
6:48 am
6 months after his 1st visit, i fi of growth, see, travel, does that for asia, for a 2nd time, the road which the delegation took from ukrainian or russian occupied territory, looked very different to when they 1st came the, the trip that prompted the i a to issue another appeal, i went to the united nations security council and i presented 5 basic principles that should be observed to avoid a major accident. i would reduce it to to
6:49 am
things basically don't attack the plant or from the or, or, or launch attacks from the plant. i'm sick on the don't need to rice as they do accept power back in june 2023. the chance arose to leave via the city of nova was we decided to break out the. he managed to escape and is now in safety. then in june 2023 separate, show us back in the headlights, the,
6:50 am
it's the world's largest mon may dissolve in decades, towns and villages, and that has some region of flooded residents. so being evacuated we're, it's mostly as pop to the destruction of the co host, cut them and ukraine, 3000 people who've had to leave that home. so that's kind of the his i was worried after the damn at the couple of kind of hydro power plant was blown up. that some of we were own very worried about this upper easy a plant. because we knew it hadn't been shut down. easy, most of us, but neighbors, that's the one the and that now there might not be enough water to cool the fuel. no, hold on doing it. the russia who's forces controlled the dam and the areas around it blamed ukraine for the destruction. but both the reuters news agency and the new york times published evidence pointing to russian responsibility
6:51 am
the dam regulated the local water supply, including for the nuclear power plant. and the hours after the blast, experts fear that the power plant could run out of cooling, water essential for the safety of these gland is that the water that you see behind the stays at that level. thankfully it turned out that the pumps could continue working even with the water at a much lower level. the immediate threat was averted, but the catastrophic situation at the nuclear power plant remains and rushes. war continues. the threats that i worry more about actually some that have come from a rushing intellectuals. there are people like a doctor. sounds like
6:52 am
a kind of kind of an, a dimitri training. and kind of kind of wrote an article that basically said it's time to use nuclear weapons in ukraine. he was suggesting that russia not know q crane, but rather its neighbors. a name, the poland, done rumania. that also is intimidation. the fact that it comes from rushing that leads who advise actually worries it more than hearing it from poking occasionally, worries me more neither the ukrainian summer offensive in 2023, nor the russian winter offensive did much to change the situation. conditions that the sat for reason nuclear power plant remained unstable. april 2024 saw a further escalation. severe drone attacks were reported by the observers.
6:53 am
