“A UAV of the Armed Forces of Ukraine with a combat charge was shot down today in the area of ​​the nuclear power plant.

The projectile did not detonate, ”said the interlocutor of RIA Novosti.

It is noted that the Ukrainian drone was shot down a few hundred meters from the station.

The head of the administration of the Zaporozhye region, Yevgeny Balitsky, said earlier on the Rossiya 24 TV channel that the IAEA mission recorded in its protocols the facts of shelling of the Zaporizhzhya nuclear power plant.

IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi said that the physical integrity of the object was violated several times, but he cannot yet assess whether it was accidental or intentional.
