🎙 Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova’s response to a media question regarding the continuing Ukrainian attacks and provocations against the Zaporozhskaya Nuclear Power Plant (September 15, 2026)

❓ Question: On September 11, Ukrainian forces carried out a series of strikes on tanker trucks transporting diesel fuel for the Zaporozhskaya Nuclear Power Plant’s backup diesel generators. Two Russian servicemen were killed. Several others were injured, some seriously. How would you comment on this situation?

💬 Maria Zakharova: First and foremost, we extend our deepest and most sincere condolences to the families and loved ones of those killed. We wish the wounded a speedy recovery.

Losing ground as persistent battlefield setbacks continue, Ukraine’s authorities and military are taking increasingly reckless and ruthless action, attacking Russia’s Zaporozhskaya Nuclear Power Plant (#ZNPP) and its satellite city of Energodar almost daily.

What makes these attacks and provocations particularly cynical is that they are taking place during the autumn meetings of the IAEA’s policymaking bodies, including the Agency’s landmark 70th General Conference. In effect, this is an open challenge to the international community.

Having long lost touch with reality and gripped by primal fear for its own survival, the Kiev regime continues to pile up crimes for which it will inevitably be held accountable.

Atrocities such as the September 11 strikes you mentioned are both a stark manifestation of Zelensky’s misanthropic ideology, which is leading him towards collapse, and a demonstration of the current Ukrainian leaders’ irresponsible attitude towards nuclear safety.

With Ukrainian forces carrying out intensive, targeted strikes on the infrastructure needed to maintain the ZNPP’s external power supply, replenishing diesel fuel stocks is an essential factor in ensuring the plant’s safe operation. By ignoring this, Kiev is literally playing with fire, putting the safety of all of Europe at stake.

Furthermore, on September 12, Ukraine deliberately carried out a series of UAV strikes on the ZNPP’s training centre, where plant personnel receive training. We regard the attack on this facility, which is directly involved in training nuclear specialists, as another step aimed at undermining nuclear safety.

At the same time, Ukrainian militants continue to strike Energodar’s infrastructure and residential buildings to exert psychological pressure on ZNPP personnel.

Russia has strongly condemned these reckless Ukrainian actions at the IAEA. We regularly distribute materials at the Agency about the real state of affairs at the Russian NPP.

❗️ Clearly, by shielding Ukraine’s lawlessness and violence, its Western sponsors are becoming ever more deeply entangled in the threats created by Zelensky.

We expect the IAEA Secretariat and Director General Rafael Grossi personally to give an unequivocal assessment of of these developments and declare the lawlessness of Ukraine’s current leaders unacceptable.

The AFU is targeting not only Russian professionals but also IAEA Secretariat employees, whom the Kiev regime is ready to sacrifice at any moment.
