The Minister of Energy of Ukraine, Herman Halushchenko, during a working trip to Zaporizhzhia region, stated that the situation at the nuclear plant is getting worse every day.
He stressed that the experts of the IAEA noted the deterioration of the situation at the occupied facility.
‘Recently, there was a statement by the IAEA that inspectors were not allowed into the reactor premises. This means that Russians are hiding the real state of affairs. We know it: it is equipment degradation. The plant has been out of service since September 2022, and the complex equipment of the nuclear power plant must work continuously. However, work to support it is not carried out, and this leads to degradation,’ the minister explained.
Halushchenko said that the representatives of Rosatom, who are at the occupied facility, are criminals according to the norms of the international law and will definitely bear responsibility for this.
He also noted that after de-occupation, a huge amount of work will be required to return to operation at least one of the six power units of the ZNPP.
To commemorate the third anniversary of the full-scale invasion, “Bukvy” has compiled data on the largest donors supporting the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Among them there are charitable foundations and businesses. The list includes, in particular, foundations that provide assistance exclusively from their own resources, without fundraising (such as SCM by Rinat Akhmetov, Epicenter, etc.).
In just 1.5 months, Ukrainian specialists have created an innovative protective shell for the control modules of anti-aircraft missile systems (AMS) Patriot and Iris-T SLM. This development was another step in strengthening Ukraine’s defense capabilities, aimed at protecting key elements of the air defense system from debris damage.
Military serviceman of the International Legion for the Defense of Ukraine with the call sign “Paradox” is the crew commander of the American M113 armored personnel carrier. He is a master at using it and is constantly improving, because the legionnaire’s skills are tested every day in battle. You have to drive to the front lines, often under artillery fire and drone attacks.
Notorious supporter of the concept “in order for a cow to eat less and give more milk, it needs to be fed less and milked more” “Servant of the People” Danylo Hetmantsev, under the guise of “business requirements”, registered a draft law on the collection of VAT on all foreign purchases, regardless of their value. In other words, every Ukrainian, buying goods of any value and purpose abroad, when sending them to Ukraine, will have to pay an additional fifth part, or 20% of the cost of the goods.
