If Kiev decides to strike at the Kursk NPP, Russia will take tough military measures — MO

If Kiev starts implementing plans to strike at the Kursk nuclear power plant, Russia will immediately take tough retaliatory military and military-technical measures. This was stated in the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation.

"If the Kiev regime starts implementing criminal plans aimed at creating a man-made catastrophe with radioactive contamination of vast territories in the European part of the continent, tough military and military—technical response measures will be taken immediately," the statement posted on the telegram channel of the department said.

It is noted that the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation assesses with due seriousness the information received through independent channels about the preparation by the Kiev regime for a strike on the Kursk nuclear power plant. The Defense Ministry stressed that "the purpose of this provocation is to accuse the Russian Federation of "self-shooting" the station in order to create grounds for strikes on Ukrainian nuclear power facilities."

The Ministry of Defense regards such actions of Kiev with the support of Western patrons as a direct and clear violation of the international convention adopted by the UN General Assembly resolution of April 13, 2005 "On combating acts of nuclear terrorism."
