Blah blah blah...
Don't care, both to blame for not declaring it neutral ground... 
Sounds fair but absent that someone would occupy it. Right now Russia controls it and Kiev controlled Ukraine still gets electricity. If Kiev controlled it that is not likely. This opinion is based on Kiev cutting off gas. Now Kiev controls the upstream part of the northern pipeline and Russia/DPR controls a downstream part. So, to prevent the Donbass from getting gas Kiev shut off the entire northern pipeline. This also ended 1/4 to 1/3 of gas to Europe through the pipeline. Germany never complained at least publicly.
Also, after Crimea rejoined Russia, Kiev shut off 90% of the water supply to Crimea, only restored by Russia this year.
I blame the party doing the shelling. There is no military objective for the shelling that I can determine. I would not want to see Russia shelling nuke plants held by Kiev. Kinda dangerous. Ukr operators still run the plant. The Russians held the plant since Mar so why start shelling now?
So the argument is using energy as a weapon is only bad if somebody other than Russia is wielding it? Swell.
I'd like to exercise some rejoining of Cuba back into American control...
Reckon we both must accept disappointment...
Who is using energy as a weapon? Who said that was bad?
I used past behavior to predict future behavior.
Russia has said the reactor outputs had been reduced. If this is done IMO they might reduce delivery to Kiev controlled parts of Ukr more than other regions.
What is Kiev's game plan? What is their goal here? I saw a drone video of a truck entering a large garage door in the facility. Kiev said this showed that the plant was being used as a military base. Russia has said they have troops inside for security.
The failure of the IAEA to show up sucks. Russia asked them in. I think Kiev said they do not want them in.
https://t.me/Reality_Theories/8088📌 Facts to know on the eve of today’s meeting of the UN Security Council on Zaporozhskaya NPP
🔵 On 5-6 August the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) once again attacked ZNPP by shelling the critically important infrastructural objects of the plant as well as its satellite city Energodar. Twenty shells have been fired during the strikes
🔵 On 5 August, at 14:45, the Ukrainian shelling (three shells hit in the proximity of the training centre next to the territory of the open switchgear of the NPP) resulted in shutdown of the autotransformer and the high voltage line providing backup power to the Units ?1 and ?2 of ZNPP
🔵 On 5 August, at 16:45, the Ukrainian side committed an artillery shelling (four shells) of oil and fuel oil handling equipment and the site of hydrogen receivers. Damage of the pipeline caused jet fire that was localized due to timely and professional actions of ZNPP personnel and Russian military
🔵 On 6 August, at 19:42, the AFU units attacked ZNPP once again. Three artillery shells of 155 millimeters caliber (NATO standard) exploded next to the spent fuel storage and only 200 meters from the operating unit. One person was injured
🔵 On 7 August ZNPP was again shelled by the Ukrainian armed formations. The high-voltage power line “Kakhovskaya” was damaged. Equipment of an open switchgear (750 kW) was damaged as a result of a power surge. At Unit ?4, that was operational at 10% capacity, the power supply of control and safety system went offline. This triggered the emergency protection of the Unit ?4
🔵 The Ukrainian personnel of the plant has decided on cooldown of the Unit ?4 of ZNPP, as well as downpower of the Units ?5 and ?6. Currently, the Units ?5 and ?6 are downpowered to 500 MW
🔵 On 11 August Ukrainian armed formations again tried to attack the ZNPP with missiles and UAVs. This attack was repulsed by the air defense forces
🔵 In addition to direct military threats to the security of ZNPP the Kiev regime is working on other scenarios to create intentional preconditions for a nuclear accident at ZNPP. Inter alia, Kiev is considering different options of cutting the plant off from the Ukrainian power grid and keeps increasing psychological pressure on ZNPP employees and their relatives (they regularly receive phone calls threatening them with criminal prosecutions and physical reprisals)
🔵 Attacks of the Kiev regime on ZNPP endanger the safety and security of Europe and the whole world. In case of an accident at this station the radiation contamination zone (more than 5300 square kilometers, length around 420 km) would cover the population of Kievskaya, Zaporozhskaya, Kharkovskaya, Poltavskaya, Khersonskaya, Odesskaya, Nikolaevskaya, Kirovogradskaya, Vinnitskaya oblasts, Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics, border areas of Russia and Belarus, as well as Moldova, Bulgaria and Romania. The situation could get worse because of adverse weather conditions and spread of possible contamination zone to South-Ukrainian NPP and the nuclear fuel storage at Chernobyl NPP, as well as water arteries. The Black Sea and the Bosphorus Strait would become unsuitable for navigation for a long time. The shores of Abkhazia, Bulgaria, Georgia, Romania and Türkiye would be contaminated with high levels of radiation
??The UN, the IAEA, as well as all countries that have influence on the Kiev regime should do everything possible to ensure immediate cessation of Ukrainian attacks on ZNPP before they resulted in devastating consequences for the whole mankind
