Meanwhile, the spokesman for the Russian nuclear power plant operator highlighted: “Currently, 35 generating sets of the 37 in total are activated, with a power of more than 34,956 million kilowatt-hours.”
Russia began an invasion of Ukraine this morning with bombings in different parts of the country and ground incursions that have already caused the first casualties, several of them civilians.
The beginning of the invasion was strongly condemned by a large part of the international community and by the Government of Ukraine, which broke diplomatic relations with Russia and promised to defend itself, while requesting international help to force Moscow to respect peace.
“I have made the decision to (start) a military operation”declared President Vladimir Putin in a televised speech at dawn, in which he assured that he was not looking for “occupation”, but “a demilitarization and a denazification” of Ukraine and the defense of pro-Russian rebels in the east of the country.
Military tensions between Russia and Ukraine have escalated in recent months, since Moscow began amassing tens of thousands of soldiers on the border between the two countries.
The alert turned red this week after Putin recognized the independence of two separatist and Russian-speaking provinces in eastern Ukraine, Lugansk and Donetsk, which border Russia, and the Russian Senate authorized the government to use military force in abroad.
More than 14,000 people have died in Ukraine in fighting between the Army and militias from the two breakaway provinces since they declared independence in 2014.
