Ukrainian forces struck a nucler power plant in the Zaporizhia region on Sunday, an area controlled by Russia.

The cooling systems at the nuclear plant caught fire sending a dark cloud of smoke in the air above the plant.

According to WIkipedia, the Zaporizhia nuclear plant in southeastern Ukraine is the largest nuclear power plant in Europe and among the 10 largest in the world. It has been under Russian control since 2022. It was built by the Soviet Union near the city of Enerhodar, on the southern shore of the Kakhovka Reservoir on the Dnieper river.

Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelenskyy confirmed that a fire broke out at the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant. The cooling system was allegedly not working. Russia would not hit a Nuclear Power Plant, it is not stupid enough to cause radiation leakage in a border country, Of course, there is a global gang behind the attack.

Zelenski, Zaporizhia Nükleer Santrali'nde yangın çıktığını doğruladı. sözde soğutma sistemide çalışmıyormuş. rusya Nükleer Santrali vurmaz,sınır ülkede radyasyon sızıntısına sebep olacak kadar salak değil, elbette saldırının arkasında küresel çete var. pic.twitter.com/Y2EgYOL3Vj

The two cooling towers are at position 11 next to the cooling pond (10), and the six nuclear reactors are at positions 1-6.

Biden should have been trying to end this war.

LOL Yup, that Ukrainian round was so accurate it went right down the middle of the cooling tower causing no visible damage to the exterior.

Normally, the space in a cooling tower is empty so the convection can work properly. It's hardly Ukraine's fault the Russians are stupid enough to hide materiel like fuel or munitions in the cooling tower.

Try to push better quality Russian manure.

This has already been debunked - the Russians set fire to a pile of tires they erected in one of the cooling towers. There’s nothing flammable in a cooling tower under normal circumstances anyway.

The only thing in a cooling tower is water. How is that going to burn?

Russia would not hit a Nuclear Power Plant

LOL, so Russians captured Ukraine's nuclear power plant in 2022 without firing a shot? Gateway Pundit ignorance

In early March, hostilities reached the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, the biggest in Europe and the fifth biggest globally. This nuclear plant houses an amount of nuclear material equivalent to 20 Chernobyls. On 4 March 2022, fighting led to a fire in an auxiliary building. On 30 May 2022, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) reported loss of connection with servers at the Zaporizhzhia plant, which was not restored until 12 June 2022

Exactly, what would produce black smoke inside a cooling tower.

When they get desperate they get stupid. Like posting helicopters attacking Ukrainian forces in Kursk yet geo location shows it was actually somewhere else

For as “good” as they seem to be with propaganda and spreading disinformation, at least quantity wise, they can be real knuckle heads
