Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky on Saturday accused Russia of using the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant"for terror" after the operator of the facility reported major damage at the site.
As hostilities raged on in the east and south of Ukraine, pro-Moscow authorities in the Russian-occupied Kherson region reported another assassination attempt on a senior official. Zelensky, in his nightly address on Saturday, once again accused Moscow of terrorism, saying,"Russian terrorists became the first in the world to use the power plant... for terror."
Vitaly Gur"is in hospital with multiple gunshot wounds, in a critical state", an unnamed official told Russian state news agency TASS. Gur is the deputy chief of the Kakhovka district, some 80 kilometres east of Kherson city.This was the latest in a series of reported assassination attempts against officials in Ukrainian regions controlled by Russia.
Referring to the strikes on the Zaporizhzhia plant, he said that although they represented"one of the most dangerous crimes against Ukrainians and all Europeans... for some reason, there's still no report or even just a simple message from Amnesty International about it. "And there are no words in any language that can convey this to someone who has not experienced this pain."
