Russians reduce their presence at ZNPP - intelligence
The Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense reported this on Telegram, according to Ukrinform.
"According to the latest data, the occupation contingent is gradually leaving the territory of the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant. Three Rosatom employees, who guided the actions of the Russians, were among the first who left the plant," the statement said.
Ukrainian employees who have signed a contract with Rosatom have also been advised to evacuate. According to the instructions, they have to leave by July 5. The preferred destination is the territory of Crimea.
"As of today, it is known that the head of Mantsurova's legal department, chief inspector Shtatsky and deputy station manager for logistics Hubarev have left for the peninsula," the DIU said.
Also, the number of military patrols is gradually decreasing on the territory of the ZNPP and in the satellite city of Enerhodar.
The personnel who are still at the station have been instructed to "blame Ukraine in case of any emergency".
