Russian missile strikes close to nuclear plant, says Ukraine

Russian missile strikes close to nuclear plant, says Ukraine

The Hindu
Monday, September 19, 2022 8:36 AM GMT

Energoatom said the missile struck just 300 metres from the plant, causing an explosion that broke more than 100 windows on buildings in the complex.

A Russian missile strike hit a facility close to a nuclear power plant in southern Ukraine on September 19, 2022, causing no damage to its reactors but damaging other industrial equipment in what the country's atomic energy operator denounced as an act of “nuclear terrorism".

Energoatom, which operates Ukraine's nuclear power plants, said the strike early on September 19, 2022 hit an industrial complex that includes the Pivdennoukrainsk Nuclear Power Plant in the southerm Mykolaiv region.

Energoatom said the missile struck just 300 metres (yards) from the plant, causing an explosion that broke more than 100 windows on buildings in the complex.

The attack also caused a nearby hydropower plant to shut down temporarily, but didn't affect the reactors of the nuclear plant, Energoatom said, calling the strike an act of “nuclear terrorism".

The Russian Defence Ministry had no immediate comment on the attack.

The Pivdennoukrainsk plant, also known as the South Ukraine Nuclear Power Plant, sits along the Southern Bug River and is some 300 kilometres (190 miles) south of the capital, Kyiv.

It is Ukraine's second-largest nuclear power plant with three reactors.
