The occupiers fired at the Zaporizhzhya NPP

Occupiers are not deterred by the presence of IAEA inspectors at the site of the Zaporizhzhya NPP

On the night of September 21 at 01:13, the Russian occupiers once again fired at the Zaporizhzhia NPP. As a result of the shelling, the communication equipment of power unit No. 6 with the open switchgear of the ZNPP was damaged. This is reported by "Energoatom".

"As a result of the attack, the block transformer and transformers of the power unit's own needs were disconnected. Due to the loss of power, two diesel generators of the safety systems were started in an emergency to ensure the operation of the fuel cooling pumps," the message reads.

At 02:00 a.m., ZNPP staff found an opportunity and set up power supply for power unit No. 6's own needs from the bus system of other power units of the station. The diesel generators of the 6th power unit were turned off and put into standby mode.
