  • 2 years ago
The Russian Ministry of Defence has shared footage showing Ukrainian armed forces leaving the Donbass region, As Russian troops continue to rain missiles and bombs on Ukrainian cities, making inroads into Ukraine, The video also shows the Russian military reportedly coming to the aid of people and providing them with food and water. The video accessed by the news outlet shows damaged tanks and abandoned US-made anti-tank Javelins on the highway as well as a number of outposts used by the retreating forces.
With the video shared by the Russian Ministry of Defence and news outlet Russia Today, Russia is trying to establish its own propaganda to assert that the Donbass region is abandoned by Ukrainian armed forces and that it is the Russian troops who are coming to the aid of the people. The video shared by Russia Today, however, is partially true, as several visuals have shown several Ukrainian cities, including those in the Donbass, facing heavy Russian shelling.
Meanwhile, Russian forces have "occupied" the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant (NPP) in southern Ukraine after a fire broke out at the facility early on Friday, according to Ukraine’s State Nuclear Regulatory Inspectorate. The "administrative building and the checkpoint at the station are under occupiers’ control," Energoatom, Ukraine’s nuclear power operator, said in a statement via Telegram on Friday.
The power plant’s six reactors remain intact, though reactor unit 1’s compartment auxiliary buildings have been damaged, the State Nuclear Regulatory Inspectorate said. "The systems and components important to the safety of the NPP are operational," the statement said. With Unit 1 out of order, four out of the six units are being cooled down while one unit is providing power.
"At present, no changes in the radiation situation have been registered," the statement added.
After heavy shelling from Russian forces early Friday, a fire broke out at the nuclear plant, prompting alarm from experts and Ukrainian officials.
Firefighters were initially unable to access the site, After a while, the fighting stopped, firefighters were allowed to enter, and the fire was put out, No casualties were reported from the fire.
American and Ukrainian authorities said radiation levels looked normal.
