    Theres no benefit to Putin’s offensive in Ukraine in attacking the 4th reactor shelter.

    It’s an attempt to poison Europe with radiation.

    It’s a terrorist attack that’s targeting NATO countries.

      it is really absurd; they’re FAFO’ing even though the know where the prevailing winds will carry the radioactive fallout. I know putin doesn’t give two fucks about the average russian but holy shit

    Important to note that it appears that the drone struck the north side of the New Safe Confinement structure. Russian claims that this was a false flag attack can be safely ignored, but there was always the possibility that a Ukrainian drone went off course, or simply hit a tall structure on its flight path. That’s not likely with a drone headed south only a few kilometers from the Belarusian border. Sure seems like a deliberate strike on the NSC by Russian forces, on that basis.
