Worst conceived and executed commando raid since Desert One or WW2s British Commando St. Nazaire Raid.
Evidently the goal was to seize the nuclear power plant while the IAEC inspectors were there, and hold them hostage to prevent a Russian counter-attack.
Much more of interest at thread link.

How would Zelensky know what’s going on with the’journalists’?
Worst conceived and executed commando raid
Nay, an excellent plan, with only a tiny glitch — the Russians clearly knew it too, in details.
Which brings up a question: what was the rationale for Zelensky a couple of days ago to state that the Russians are about to get a surprise?
Too much cocaine, perhaps.
Anyway, the net result is the Ukrainian special forces as well as MI-6 super-Bonds easily converted to Chicken Kiev...
The St. Nazaire Raid is not the best example you might have chosen (of bad planning/execution).
The raid was very successful: the all-important drydock was put out of operation until 1948
However it’s fair to say that the decisive act of the Raid was the HMS Campbeltown being used as a breaching charge.
The commando component of the raid seems to have been very expensive and not to have achieved very much - except of course to divert the Germans from the large destroyer-shaped bomb in their midst.
