“Ukraine’s HUR military intelligence reported earlier in July that Russia continues to mine the plant. According to the report, mines, and explosives continued to be delivered to the territory of the nuclear plant.”
So I guess the Russians blowing up their own nuclear plant is on hold, pending future developments in the Ukraine “counter-offensive”.
“So I guess the Russians blowing up their own nuclear plant is on hold”
Who knows. Putin is getting a lot of feedback from China, Turkey, Saudi Arabia etc. Since occupying the plant, Russia has used the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant as a military base, placing troops and equipment there.
IMO, he kind of painted himself into a corner now.
The best he can do is Russia continues to mine the plant & mine the fields surrounding for deniability if nuclear plant goes ‘boom.’
