In Kurchatov, Russia, home to the Kursk Nuclear Power Plant (NPP), explosions have been reported as Ukrainian Defense Forces quickly closing in on the city. Strong blasts were heard, and air defenses are active in the area. Ukrainian forces are reportedly within a few dozen kilometers of Kurchatov and the Kursk NPP. Russians are preparing the facility for a possible attack.
According to Russian media, all access roads to the nuclear plant have been urgently blocked. Power outages have been reported in the new blocks under construction at the NPP, and workers have evacuated the site. The mayor of Kurchatov declared a state of emergency, describing the situation as “tense.” Notably, evacuation of residents has not yet begun, though many are leaving voluntarily as Ukrainian Armed Forces near the city.

You just gotta love this stuff. I pray there aren’t many casualties on our side.
I’m eating this up while it’s lasting.
I think we can safely say that Ukraine are trying to capture this NPP. I wonder if the orcs will start using weapons from the site, thinking Ukraine dare not fire back at them?
So it seems. I don’t think it’s just a coincidence to go in the NPP’s direction. Of course, the roaches will do whatever they can to stop the AFU from achieving this. But, I think that right now, the roach aviation is the main threat for the Ukrainians.
“Notably, evacuation of residents has not yet begun”
Orc priorities…..
I guess they still plan on hiding behind women and children.
No doubt placing weapons on the roof of the NPP.
“According to Russian media, all access roads to the nuclear plant have been urgently blocked.”
So what! I’m sure Ukraine will have the means to unblock them.
No problem. The AFU unblocked two defensive lines and a strong point.
Слава Україні!
Героям слава!
