Putin confirmed the presence of the Russian army at the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant.
He also complained about shelling of the ZNPP "by Ukrainian troops". According to him, the Russian military constantly finds debris from HIMARS on the territory of the station.
In addition, Russian president emphasized that the remaining members of the IAEA can see that there is no military equipment on the territory of the ZNPP. However, he later stated that there are "tigers" of the Russian Guard there after all.
"The National Guard is there, guarding the perimeter and the interior. Well, the Tigers are there. The Russian Guard is responsible for security," Russian president said.
