The new Chernobyl is no better than TNW: We can respond with a blow to nuclear power plants in NATO countries — Medvedev

In the event of a disaster at the NPP, Russia may respond with a strike at nuclear power plants in NATO countries involved in the conflict. This was stated on the Mach platform by Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council Dmitry Medvedev.

So he commented on today's attack of the Ukrainian Armed Forces on the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant.

"I have already written about this once, but I will repeat these harsh words again. It is obvious that in the event of a catastrophic destruction of the engine or reactor hall of a nuclear power plant, a new Chernobyl will come. And this is no better than the use of tactical nuclear weapons. And the response to such actions may be a symmetrical strike on Ukrainian nuclear power plants, as well as on nuclear power plants in NATO countries involved in the conflict," Medvedev writes.

As EADaily reported, a Ukrainian drone struck a nuclear power plant just a few meters from a nuclear reactor. This was stated by the Director of Communications of the Zaporozhye nuclear power Plant Evgenia Yashina.

So she commented on today's attack by the Ukrainian Armed Forces on the engine station of the power unit No. 6 of the NPP.
