Russian visit – Defense Minister Shoigu checked equipment

Date:

Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu visited soldiers at the front in Ukraine. On this occasion, he checked the conditions for the deployment of personnel and military equipment, the ministry said.

In addition, Shoigu would have received an impression of the positions of the military units and the housing and heating conditions. The Russian Defense Ministry released footage on Telegram on Thursday showing Sergei Shoigu inspecting barracks and walking through trenches. The Russian defense minister is said to have spoken to soldiers during his visit to the front and thanked them.

Soon a safety zone around the Zaporizhia nuclear power plant?
Another conversation has now taken place between representatives of the Russian authorities and the head of the IAEA (International Atomic Energy Agency, note) Rafael Grossi. According to Rosatom, Russia’s Federal Atomic Energy Agency, they came close together in their positions on a security zone around the Zaporizhia nuclear power plant. “It is crucial that the zone focuses solely on preventing a nuclear accident,” Grossi tweeted.

The nuclear power plant in southern Ukraine is occupied by Russian troops and repeatedly fired upon. The IAEA chief’s initiative means that both Moscow and Kiev commit to stopping the shelling. In addition, the Russian military would withdraw heavy weapons to de-escalate the situation. However, the Russian government has so far rejected international calls for a full withdrawal of troops from Europe’s largest power plant.
