Russia struck targets across Ukraine overnight into Sunday, including an area near the site of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, a day after Kyiv launched a large-scale drone attack on Russian territory.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Moscow’s forces hit infrastructure around the Chernobyl nuclear site, calling it “an extremely vile Russian strike.” Ukrainian media say the Russian strikes hit a fuel storage facility in the exclusion zone.
“Russia deliberately struck this particular nuclear infrastructure facility,” Zelenskyy wrote on X Sunday morning, while stressing that there was no immediate radiation threat. “As of now, there are no readings exceeding normal background radiation levels.”
