None of the workers were injured.

In addition, it is emphasized that the radiation situation at the Central Nuclear Fuel and Energy Facility site remains within normal limits.

Another strike on a nuclear infrastructure facility has once again shown the world the true face of the Kremlin regime, which deliberately creates threats to nuclear and radiation safety. Russia continues to act as a terrorist state and a nuclear terrorist, disregarding international law and the safety of millions of people.
