Life in Nikopol

Since the beginning of the Russian aggression, 44 residents have been killed and 210 injured. When the Russian occupiers recently announced the evacuation of the town of Enerhodar, which is located near the power plant, there was an increased shelling of Nikopol.

According to eyewitnesses, mainly settlements near the river were affected. Before the war, Nikopol had a population of about 100,000 residents. According to the authorities, 40 to 50 percent of them are still in the city.

The Russians use a powerful power plant as a shield. "It's playing with fire"

Russian forces use the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant as cover against attacks by the Ukrainian army. It is the largest nuclear power plant in Europe, and Russian equipment hidden inside is used to fire at Ukrainian forces stationed on the other side of the Dnieper in Nikopol.

"They hide there so that they cannot be hit," says Oleksandr Sajuk, the mayor of Nikopol. "Why else would they be at the power plant? It's very dangerous to use such an object as a shield." Residents are fleeing Nikopol because of the threat of both shelling and potential radiation. And those who remain feel helpless, as if they were targets in a shooting range reports Dnipro Today.
