Russian President Putin has accused Ukraine of attempting to strike the nuclear power plant in the Kursk region. The International Atomic Energy Agency has been informed and promises to send specialists to assess the situation.

Shelters are being constructed in the cities of Kursk, Zheleznogorsk, and Kurchatov to protect the population. Ukrainian President Zelenskyy visited the region and met with General Sirskyi.

Ukrainian forces have carried out a cross-border attack, capturing another Russian village and detaining Russian soldiers. The situation in the region remains tense, with ongoing fighting and military advances.

Both Russia and Ukraine have accused each other of aggression. The conflict has resulted in a significant number of refugees, with over 133,000 people evacuated from the Kursk region.

The international community is closely monitoring the situation, and there are concerns about the safety of nuclear power plants in the region. Efforts to de-escalate the conflict and find a peaceful resolution are ongoing, but the situation remains highly volatile.
