The russian occupationists at the Zaporizhzhya nuclear power plant not only expose the entire world to nuclear danger, but also cause an ecological catastrophe by their actions.

After capturing the ZNPP, the occupationists planted mines throughout the surrounding territory, and animals are blown up on these mines. This is a real ecocide as the Zaporizhzhya NPP is located in the steppes on the shore of the Kakhovka Reservoir, and the territory around the power plant with a radius of 2.5 kilometers is a sanitary protection zone.

Due to the death of a large number of animals in the ZNPP sanitary protection zone, as well as the fact that the occupationists do not remove the carcasses of dead animals, they begin to decompose and their remains get into the groundwater, polluting it. This can lead to the ingress of poisonous substances into the drinking canals, which will expose the residents of Enerhodar and nearby settlements to mass poisoning.
The ZNPP related infrastructure suffers damage as well. In particular, mine explosions, which wild animals encounter, damage communications on the power plant site: switchgear equipment, elements of integrated cable system, open sections of pipelines, etc.
