His representative Kremlin Dmitry Peskov He denied that a Russian unmanned aircraft hit part of the damaged Chernobyl nuclear power plant on Friday morning, as Ukraine President Volodimir Zelenski said earlier.

Peskov said in a phone call from media reports that he had no accurate information about the incident. “But I know one thing: there can be no talk of nuclear infrastructure or nuclear energy installations. Therefore, any claim that this happened is not true, ”he said.

The Kremlin spokesman added: “The Russian army does not. Probably, this is another challenge, a provocation. “

Earlier, Zelenski said the explosion that occurred at dawn in the metal sarcophagus of the fourth reactor came from a Russian drone attack. The new sarcophagus protects what is left of the fourth reactor of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant.
