The Spin

Irrespective of who was to blame for this incident, attacks like this on a nuclear power plant — the largest on the European continent at that — simply cannot happen. There are basic principles of war that have to be abided by all sides of the conflict.

Ukraine has had no involvement whatsoever in the attacks at the ZNPP. Russia, which is known to use false-flag operations, bears sole responsibility. The nuclear power plant would never have been in danger if Russia didn't launch an unprovoked war on Ukraine.

Not only was this a dangerous provocation on Ukraine's part, but there are IAEA staff on-site to witness the attacks. This is a very dangerous tactic and with very bad consequences in the long run. The Kiev regime, unfortunately, continues its terrorist activity.

Metaculus Prediction

There is a 5% chance that there will be a serious radiation incident at any nuclear plant in Ukraine by 2025, according to the Metaculus prediction community.
