The diplomat, who spoke to the press on the sidelines of the 4th Eurasian Women’s Forum, said that the above-mentioned photos were taken from a distance of several kilometers by an Ukrainian reconnaissance drone.

Zakharova stressed this demonstrates the true nature of the Kiev government’s military, as well as “the absence of the slightest attachment to democracy and legality”.

They have moved from an exclusively nationalist agenda and dictatorship to now outright terrorist activity, she added.

The Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman drew attention to the fact that the United States and, primarily, the United Kingdom are behind all of Kiev’s actions.

Earlier, the head of the Russian State Atomic Energy Corporation (Rosatom), Aleksei Likhachov, stated that the Kursk nuclear power plant suffered a massive attack by the Ukrainian Armed Forces in August.

According to the senior official, “the Ukrainian authorities made no secret of their intentions to seize the plant by force.”
