According to the news released by Zaporizhia Nuclear Power Plant spokesperson Yevgenia Yashin today (August 12), the cooling tower of Zaporizhia Nuclear Power Plant "was caught on fire by a drone attack and the interior has been burned." The staff needs to conduct a detailed assessment before confirming the time required for repairs.

The head of the Zaporizhia region said on social media on August 11 local time that the cooling facilities of the Zaporizhia Nuclear Power Plant "caught fire due to an attack by the Ukrainian army" that day, and the radiation levels around the nuclear power plant were normal. The nuclear power plant said that the cooling facilities that were attacked were not adjacent to the generator set. Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Zakharova said that the Ukrainian side's behavior was "nuclear intimidation against the European continent." However, according to Ukrainian President Zelensky on social media that day, "it was the Russian side that set the fire in the Zaporizhia Nuclear Power Plant area." He also pointed out that the radiation indicators of the nuclear power plant were normal. (CCTV reporter Xu Hongbo)
