Putin Is Preparing A Terrorist Attack On Chernobyl Says Ukraine Defence Intelligence

The Defence Intelligence of Ukraine has claimed Russian President Vladimir Putin is plotting a terrorist attack on Chernobyl.

The nuclear power plant was seized by Russian forces on the first day of their invasion of Ukraine on Thursday, February 24.

Amid governmental fears that Russia would try and use the plant to blackmail the West, Chernobyl was disconnected from power two days ago, leaving it a risk of radioactive substances being released into the air.

Ukraine is now claiming Putin is planning to 'create a man-made catastrophe' at Chernobyl, and will allegedly try and 'shift' the blame onto Ukraine.

The governmental agency took to Facebook and Twitter to share the 'available information' on the alleged upcoming attack.

It wrote: 'The creation of a technological catastrophe is planned at the controlled Russian forces of the CAEC, the responsibility for which the occupiers will try to translate to Ukraine.

'At the moment, the CAEC is completely disconnected from the monitoring systems of the International Atomic Energy Agency (MAGATE). The station has been disrupted. The resource of existing diesel generators is calculated for 48 hours of security systems to support.

'[Occupants] refused to give access to the station [for] Ukrainian repairman. Instead, there, according to the instruction of Alexander Lukashenko, "Belarusian specialists" came in. Among them, under the guise of atomnikív also enter Russian dissidents to organize a terrorist attack.'

Ukraine's Defence Intelligence went on to claim that, in order to 'shift' the blame onto Ukraine for the planned 'catastrophe', Russian forces have been 'collecting the bodies of dead Ukrainian defenders' in car refrigerators in a bid to 'create "fake" evidence to confirm their version'.

'There is a probability that they will be issued for killed diversants in the CHAES zone,' it stated.

However, following reports of Russian forces disobeying Putin's orders, the governmental agency warned that 'without getting the desired result from the ground military operation and direct negotiations, Putin is ready to commit to the nuclear blackmail of the world community for the sake of actions to support Ukraine'.

Two days ago, Ukrainian foreign minister Dymtro Kuleba warned that Chernobyl could be just 48 hours away from being at risk of leaking.

Within the plant, workers are reported as being forced to work on just one meal a day and two hours of sleep.

Russia has also attacked other plants, such as Zaporizhzhia, where it is reported that workers are being tortured.

The Defence Intelligence of Ukraine concluded: 'Narazí and Ukraine, and the world, and Russia itself understand that the statements about Ukraine's involvement in the creation of nuclear danger are only a production based on a non-dangerous scenario.

'Despite this, Putin's similar actions will have catastrophic consequences for the whole world. Looks like this is exactly what the Russian dictator is counting on, demanding unacceptable actions.'
