Ukrainian military intelligence warned of a possible Russian operation at the Zaporizhzhia NPP, after workers at the Russian-captured nuclear power plant were ordered to stay at home today, DPA reported. "We fear that after the shelling of the power plant, Russian forces are now planning to carry out a terrorist attack," the intelligence agency said. Moscow said that Kyiv was also planning a provocation at the nuclear power plant today. "Causing any damage to the power plant would be suicide," said UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, who spoke with Ukrainian and Turkish presidents Volodymyr Zelensky and Recep Tayyip Erdogan in the Ukrainian city of Lviv. In his address, Volodymyr Zelensky pointed out that Russia must immediately grant the International Atomic Energy Agency access to the power plant.
At the tripartite meeting, Recep Erdogan expressed his willingness to have a mediating role again. "I hope the war will end at the negotiating table," he said. However, Volodymyr Zelensky ruled out the possibility of peace talks with Russia before it withdraws its troops from the territory of Ukraine. "People who kill, rape, hit civilian targets in our cities with cruise missiles every day cannot ask for peace. First, they have to leave our territory, then we will see," the Ukrainian president said.
Two Russian villages were evacuated after a fire broke out at an ammunition depot near the border with Ukraine, local authorities said. No casualties were reported, but residents of Timonovo and Soloti were moved at a safe distance, Belgorod regional governor Vyacheslav Gladkov said. The fire comes days after explosions at a military base and ammunition depot in Moscow's annexed Ukrainian peninsula of Crimea. At least four explosions were heard in Sevastopol, but it is not clear if any people were injured.
