Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said Saturday that the Russian-occupied Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant posed a “serious threat” and that Russia was “technically ready” to cause a localized explosion.

Ukrainian intelligence informed Zelenskiy.

“There is a serious threat because Russia is technically ready to provoke a local explosion at the station, which could lead to a (radiation) release,” Zelenskiy told a Kyiv news conference with visiting Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez.
He didn’t elaborate. Ukrainian military intelligence earlier said Russian troops mined the plant.

Europe’s largest nuclear reactor in southeastern Ukraine, Zelenskiy, demanded more international attention. He demanded Rosatom sanctions.

Sanchez visited Kyiv to support Ukraine as Spain began its six-month EU leadership. He claimed Spain would give Ukraine 55 million euros ($60 million) to boost the economy and small enterprises.

Russia has held southern Ukraine’s Zaporizhzhia nuclear reactor near Enerhodar since early March last year, just after Moscow invaded.

Russia has disputed Kyiv’s claims that it was plotting a plant explosion. Kyiv and Moscow have shelled the massive facility.

The 1986 Chornobyl nuclear power plant explosion and fire in Ukraine, then part of the USSR, caused the world’s worst nuclear catastrophe. Radioactive clouds swept across Europe.
