Not good, but not terrible.

Rafael Mariano Grossi, Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency, confirmed in a press conference from Vienna, Austria, that a training facility building at the Zaporizhzhia Power Plant in Ukraine was hit by a Russian projectile and Ukrainian fire fighters extinguished the ensuing fire.
“We are fortunate there was no release of radiation and the integrity of the reactors was not compromised,” Gross said in the press conference, but said it’s time for “action. “We need to do something about this.”
He said he wants to head to Chernobyl for a meeting so that both sides of the conflict can agree to a framework to avoid attacking nuclear power plants in the future.
“We are ready to move,” he said of the IAEA.
He said that two security people at the plant were injured in the attack.

The cables were blabbing about a nuclear disaster long after this news came out.
Absolute liars.
Meanwhile, looks like our Deep State is about ready to ink a new nuke deal with Russia’s good buds, the mullahs.
Could Pootie be mad because we just bought Iran...?

Another coordinated release of hysterical disinformation. Every outlet was running with the exact same headline. If you listened to Rush, this was another “gravitas” moment. Lots of posters here were lapping it up. The thought never occurred to them to ask why Putin would chose to voluntarily irradiate millions of Russians across the border.
The Ukrainian PR campaign is in full swing, even on FreeRepublic I’m afraid.
He reports that Zelensky said that "Russian Tanks are shooting at the nuclear blocks".
David Reaboi also uses some harsh language, both of Zelensky and of the media, which I can't link past. But I'm trying to focus on Zelensky's actual claim here.
Either Zelensky just made up a load of inflammatory nonsense that the media eagerly repeated, or Russian tankers are amazingly bad shots.
Watching the disinformation being spread by some posters here is breathtaking. The crazy part is their speed shifting on the “facts” when the the narrative changes. Two days ago the Ukrainians were all “ghosts of Kiev” and the Russian Army was a befuddle paper tiger. Now the Russians are steamrolling the lowly Ukrainians. A real blitzkrieg of Russian criminals blowing up nuclear plants along their route of conquest.
WUT? You mean it was another panic created by the usual panic punks roaming the net?
SAY IT AINT SO!
The great “hero” Bublinsky isnt as innocent as most people think.
The mans been trying to get everyone dragged into his war for some time.
Eff the whole works. Its a war between two slavic barbaric governments and let them kill each other off.
We got problems in this country to deal with.
Good chance of 8 dollars a gallon of gas by Memorial day. Have a grand time traveling paying that much. Pig face Bidet has taken away your ability to enjoy your life and travel.
If Russia wants a huge cloud of radiation to go over Europe, then a huge cloud of radiation WILL go over Europe. It will depend on how ‘involved’ Europe and other countries want to get in this war.
Everyday lies piled on lies.
I believe all the lies are to get people all wee we’ed up so they will support US intervention.
Not good, but not terrible.
Never mind Admin Moderators, we need Graphite Moderators, amirite?
(tap tap, is this thing on?)
As I don't speak the language, the most salient point to me were the little white hats. Obviously a practical, important piece of head gear if they are still being used today.
It's under new management of course. It looks like at least one ukrainian-badged person is working with the Russians to monitor the place.
So, the AP was just caught deliberately lying about radiation levels, oh my, what a surprise!
I seriously doubt the Russians had/have any interest in releasing radiation from the reactor. Probably the intent was to destroy the means of delivering the electricity produced by the plant.
