The Ukrainian president has warned that Russian soldiers who open fire on the besieged Zaporizhia nuclear power plant will be attacked by security forces. Volodymyr Zelensky said in a late-night speech on Saturday that soldiers firing at or from the facility would be a “special target” for Ukraine.
He also accused Moscow of turning the factory into a Russian military base and using it as a “nuclear blackmail”.
After heavy fighting in March, Russia seized the facility.
