"Escalating Tensions: Ukraine Braces for Potential Nuclear Catastrophe Amid Russia-Ukraine Conflict"

Oleksii Danilov, Secretary of Ukraine’s National Security and Defence Council, warns that the world will consider a potential terrorist attack on the occupied Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP) by Russia as the use of nuclear weapons against civilians. He criticizes the inadequate international response to the blowing up of the Kakhovka Hydroelectric Power Plant and states that Ukraine is doing everything possible to prevent the attack. Danilov suggests that Western partners are warning Russia of the catastrophic consequences it would face. He acknowledges the unpredictability of the terrorists and mentions that Ukraine has conducted exercises and preparations to respond to such an attack.
