«Earlier this week, the Zaporizhzhya Nuclear Power Plant also informed the IAEA of a drone attack on a transport workshop in a nearby industrial zone, which reportedly caused some damage, but no casualties,» the agency said in a post on its website.
According to ZNPP, as a result of the attack on the transport workshop, where the buses used to transport plant personnel to the neighboring town of Energodar are parked, the antenna of the civil communications network was damaged.
ZNPP is located on the left bank of the Dnieper near the city of Energodar.

He added that Kyiv talks about its desire to have nuclear weapons, while constantly stating that the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant is being shelled by the Russian Federation: they have gone crazy, there are Russian troops at the station, the president said.
