"The Armed Forces destroyed the orcs’ command post in the village of Dytiatky near Chornobyl. The Chief of Staff of the 36th Army of Russia’s Eastern Military District, Major General Sergei Nirkov, fled to Belarus. He left his men behind to be annihilated by our Army," the statement reads.
Earlier, Mykhailo Podoliak, an adviser to the head of the President's Office, said that the Ukrainian military had lost control of the Chornobyl Nuclear Power Plant. The situation at the Chornobyl NPP, the Shelter confinement, and nuclear waste storage facilities remains unclear.
On February 24, Russia launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Since then, Russian troops have repeatedly violated the laws and customs of war by shelling civilians, including with proscribed weapons, using civilians as a "human shield," and the like. Ukraine has filed a lawsuit against the Russian Federation with the UN International Criminal Court in The Hague. ICC Prosecutor Karim Khan has initiated a full-fledged investigation into the situation in Ukraine.
