Russian Ministry of Defense has announced that it takes very seriously information about Ukraine’s plans to attack the Kursk Nuclear Power Plant.Kiev apparently intends to blame this attack on Russia and claim that it was meant to create a pretext for strikes against Ukrainian nuclear power plants.Russian defense officials also warned that, if Kiev does implement its “criminal plans” aimed at causing a man-made disaster that would cause radioactive contamination of vast territories in the “European part of the continent,” Russia will immediately enact “harsh retaliatory military and military-technical measures.”On August 16, the Russian military-civilian administration for the Kharkov Region reported that several captured Ukrainian militants claimed Ukraine plans to attack Russian nuclear facilities, with Kursk Nuclear Power Plant and Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant being named as possible targets for these attacks.Russian military correspondents also warned that Ukrainian forces may be planning to use a “dirty bomb” - a conventional explosive device laden with radioactive material designed to contaminate the environment- as part of Ukraine’s campaign of provocations against Russia.

Russia to Use Harsh Military Measures in Case of Ukraine's Plan for Man-Made Disaster
12:48 17.08.2024 (Updated: 10:30 19.08.2024) On August 16, reports surfaced that Ukrainian forces may be planning a nuclear provocation that could involve the use of a so-called dirty bomb.
Russian Ministry of Defense has announced that it takes very seriously information about
Ukraine’s plans to attack the Kursk Nuclear Power Plant.
Kiev apparently intends to blame this attack on Russia and claim that it was meant to create a pretext for strikes against Ukrainian nuclear power plants.
"We regard such actions by the Kiev regime with the support of Western patrons as a direct and clear violation of the international convention adopted by the UN General Assembly resolution of April 13, 2005 on combating acts of nuclear terrorism," the ministry said in a statement.
Russian defense officials also warned that, if Kiev does implement its “
criminal plans” aimed at causing a man-made disaster that would cause radioactive contamination of vast territories in the “European part of the continent,” Russia will immediately enact “harsh retaliatory military and military-technical measures.”
On August 16, the Russian military-civilian administration for the Kharkov Region reported that several captured Ukrainian militants claimed Ukraine plans to attack Russian nuclear facilities, with
Kursk Nuclear Power Plant and Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant being named as possible targets for these attacks.
Russian military correspondents also warned that Ukrainian forces may be planning to use a “dirty bomb” - a conventional explosive device laden with radioactive material designed to contaminate the environment- as part of Ukraine’s campaign of provocations against Russia.
