In particular, the diplomat recalled that the Armed Forces of Ukraine continue shelling the territory of the nuclear power plant, including with the use of Western weapons and drones.

The situation with nuclear safety at the ZNPP has degraded, Nebenzya stated.

During his speech, he also showed photographs of shelling traces carried out by the Ukrainian military.

At the same time, he noted the inaction of the West around the situation with nuclear power plants.

The continuation of shelling is a consequence of the criminal connivance of Western countries, the diplomat stressed.

“Contrary to the false statements of the Kyiv regime and its curators, Russia does not place heavy weapons on the territory of the ZNPP and does not use the station for military purposes.

The Russian Ministry of Defense is ready to provide the IAEA with high-resolution images, which show that weapons, especially heavy ones, are not located on the territory of the station, ”said the Russian envoy.

As Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov noted in a telephone conversation with French Foreign Minister Catherine Colonna, Kyiv, continuing to shell the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant, puts the whole of Europe at risk of a nuclear catastrophe.
