This was reported by the head of the Center for Countering Disinformation, Andriy Kovalenko.

“The Russians are using Zaporizhzhia NPP as a territory where they train FPV pilots,” the statement said.

According to Kovalenko, FPV drone pilots being trained at the occupied nuclear power plant are terrorizing the town of Nikopol in the Dnipropetrovsk region. The head of the Center for Countering Disinformation stated that Russian troops are utilizing the Ukrainian town as a training ground.

“In fact, ZNPP is a cover for Russia,” Kovalenko added.

  • Russian forces continue to use the territory of Zaporizhzhia NPP to deploy their troops, ammunition and explosives. Currently, up to 1,300 Russian Guard soldiers are stationed there.
