It looks like a fire, but the head of the Nikopol RVA Yevtushenko denies the information. According to him, the Russian military probably set fire to the car tires in the cooling stations for some reason.
"This may be a provocation or an attempt to create panic in the settlements on the right bank of the former reservoir. Now the Zaporizhzhya NPP is operating normally under occupation," he wrote.
The radiation background in the area remains within normal limits, Yevtushenko noted.
