Andrii Cherniak, the representative of the Defense Intelligence of Ukraine, highlighted that the russians are leveraging the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant’s territory for launching drones. They exploit the fact that Ukrainian forces are prohibited from engaging targets within a 1.5-kilometer radius around the station.
The occupiers have established launch sites for their UAVs near the sixth reactor of the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant. Additionally, since the summer of 2023, russia have been utilizing the captured nuclear power plant’s grounds to train FPV drone pilots at the Archangel school, which is funded by the Main Directorate of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of russia (formerly known as the GRU).
