UN Secretary General urged to establish a security perimeter around the Zaporozhye NPP

This is reported by TASS with reference to the statement of the Secretary General.

“I call on the armed forces of the Russian Federation and Ukraine to immediately stop any military operations in the immediate vicinity of the nuclear power plant and not to use its facilities and surroundings as targets,” he said.

At the same time, Guterres announced the need for an agreement at the technical level on a secure demilitarization perimeter to ensure the security of the area.

Earlier, Ivan Nechaev, deputy director of the information and press department of the Russian Foreign Ministry, said that Kyiv's shelling of the territory of the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant was an act of nuclear terrorism.

Russian air defense systems prevented another attack by Ukrainian armed forces on the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant.

According to the authorities of the region, on the night of August 11, the Armed Forces of Ukraine tried to shell the territory of the ZNPP and Energodar from MLRS, heavy artillery, and also with the help of attack drones.
