it's not in Ukraine's interest to bomb their own power plant and risk a nuclear explosion
It's not in Russia's interest to bomb the power plant they control now and risk a nuclear explosion. Ukrainians lost it and they know it. That's why the buildings there have holes from artillery fire on the river side (the positions of the Ukroartillery are just across the river).
@Redstorm
I included a Russian link
Where? TheDrive is a car-oriented website, seems from California. The Insider is a murky organization based somewhere in Europe. In the articles you provided links to there are a lot of probables and empty assumptions, almost no facts.
Army trucks do not usually carry burgers
Army trucks usually carry anything the troops need. It actually can be burgers, or anything the soldiers eat.
Without evidence how can you claim the article is false?
You provided no proof to confirm your claim the plant was mined, ot it is used as an ammunition depot.

There have been photos of Russian army trucks with ammo inside the NPP
sources say power plant is mined
The assumption the trucks were with ammo was based on what? The claim "the plant was mined" was based on what? Can we have proof, not false claims?
They turned off the internet, left only landline phones
Very reasonable security measure. A couple of staff of the plant were exposed as Ukroartillery spotters.
Ukraine is concerned Russia has started shelling the area it occupies to try to create a false narrative
Why bother? Russia does not need to create anything, Ukraine already done its best. Ukraine shelled the cities of Donbass almost daily since 2014, it fired heavy artillery shells and MRLS missiles at cities and towns it lost since this February, bombarding power plants, bridges, railway stations. Now the nuclear plant.
Russia has staged sham votes in the past, such as with Crimea, which it annexed in 2014
If the West did not like the result of the vote it does not mean it was sham. Kosovo - that was a sham.

@Desert Tortoise
The Russians are hiding their artillery inside the grounds of the reactor complex
They don't.
where they know the Ukrainians won't shoot
They actually shoot, a lot. The IAEA team was presented with shell fragments collected on the premises of the plant, including shells from M777 US-made howitzers.
I wonder why there is not a word about a commando raid, staged by Ukroforces yesterday with the aim to capture the nuclear plant while the IAEA team was there. Luckily the raid failed completely.

Donbass was a war zone since 2014. I do not recall any concern about that from the people who cheerleading the regime now.
@wallace
You can provide evidence of that
HIMARS and M777 projectiles' fragments were found on the premises. And projectiles' trajectory can be easily calculated with modern equipment.
On 19 February 1954, the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the Soviet Union issued a decree transferring the Crimean Oblast from the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic to the Ukrainian SSR
Administrative border within one country. A whole country (East Germany) was absorbed by West Germany when its people decided to do so. The people of Crimea made its decision.

The Russians broke the Minsk agreements already after 3 days. Russian Pro Separatists and the Russian army attacked Debalzewe already 3 days later
It seems you completely lack the knowledge of even basic facts. a) Russia was not a part of the Minsk agreements, the agreements were between the Ukroregime and the Donbass rebels. Russia along with France and Germany just helped to conclude the agreements ("The Normandy Format").
b) First Minsk agreement (signed in Sep.2014) was broken in Jan.2015 by the Ukroarmy when in started its winter offensive.
c) Second Minsk agreements was signed in Feb.2015, after the battle of Debaltsevo. What "3 days", what are you talking about? Learn facts before writing.
mass murdering innocent people, incl. women and children. And additional, raping young Girls!
The author of these stories, the official of the Ukroregime called Denisova, was fired for these lies. Even the regime considered these stories too stupid and unbeliavable.

He certainly did not ‘start invasion plans’, his plan was to make the region a special autonomous zone
Actually he prepared invasion plans. In the weeks before Feb.24 Ukroartillery fired hundreds of shells on Donetsk daily.
It was the little green men from over the border who continued the shelling
Seriously? Then why the population of Donbass is overwhelmingly supports the Russians and fights against the regime? Do you think they are so stupid they do not understand who is killing them?

There would be no shelling from either side if the orcs hadn’t invaded
The real orcs actually started the shelling in 2014 and continued it for eight years. The Ukroorcs started the bloodshed.
The idea that Ukraine is shelling the plant, deliberately putting the whole country, as well as surrounding countries who are mainly allies, at risk of nuclear disaster, is ludicrous
The idea that Ukraine is shelling the plant, deliberately putting the whole country, as well as surrounding countries at risk of nuclear disaster, is correct. The Ukroorcs just imitate their idols from nazi Germany's playbook - "when leave a territory you can't return, destroy everything".
and forces NATO to take direct action
The last hope of Zelensky' regime: to lure NATO into direct war with Russia.
Immediately after his election in 2019 Zelensky started working on partial autonomy for the Donbas region
He did nothing. The Minsk peace agreements were very clear how to settle the conflict. All that Zelensky had to do was to follow the agreements. He did nothing, only made the shellings of Donbass worse.
@wallace
If there was a nuclear disaster at the plant NATO would move into Ukraine
That's the plan by Zelensky.

The total loss of civilian lives is 3,404 over the last 8 years. the vast majority of those in 2014 and 2015. And many were killed by Russians, including the Malaysian Airlines flight MH17, that a Russian BUK shot down killing 298 on board
Almost all civilians were killed by Ukroforces, they had absolute superiority in firepower (Donbass forces had no warplanes and a very small number of tanks and heavy artillery). MH17 was shot down by Ukroforces, they have a habit of shooting down civilian jets (shot down a Russian jet liner in 2001 and also initially fiercely denied it).
@wallace
Just like in Crimea, Chechnya, Georgia, and North Caucasus, 15 years of war
Crimea - not a shot fired. Chechnya - an islamist insurgency, Georgia - a small conflict after Georgian army attacked Russia first. North Caucasus - what do you mean? Anyway, compare it to the trail of blood - Serbia, Afghanistan, Iraq, Lybya.

"Strikes to the Russian rear - yes". Some sabotage and small drone attacks. Meanwhile Russian bombers can strike any part of Ukraine at will.
"Refusal of of Russian front line units to fight including elements of its “elite” paratroopers unit - yes". Anything to support this claim?
"Scrounging for convicted felons to serve in the Russian “army” to make up if horrendous losses - yes". Anything to support this claim? For Ukraine - correct.
"Economic contraction that by Russia’s on statistics agency of 4% annually (the actual number is likely much higher) - yes". Check for the latest energy prices in EU-UK-US. Check the steep rise in food prices. Get ready for a cold winter.

You've had 6 months to take out 900 soldiers. Are you saying you've failed up to this point?
Mariupol (where Azov faught and ingloriously surrendered) was taken not in 6 months, in two. And Mariupol garrison was about 20 thousand troops, not 900. What's your point?
@Nemo
So, that’s why they’re using Sams on ground targets and pulling obsolete tanks out of mothballs? Because they’re being “conservative”
Read carefully before replying: I meant "conservative" in their claims about destroyed targets. Old tanks - what's the problem in using them as static pillboxes? Look at the lenghth of the frontline, one can't have brand new equipment everywhere. And can you provide a link about SAMs? Heard nothing about it.
And where, prey tell, is the mighty Russian air farce? They seem to be conspicuously absent?
Russian AF is alive and well, hundreds of sorties every day. Ukrosoldiers are very unhappy about it. By the way, where is the mighty Ukro Air Farce? Where are its hundreds of bombers and fighters, top NATO-trained pilots? How come some posters here cheerleading every small drone attack, not powerful strikes of Ukrobombers against Moscow?

@Fighto!
The more fascist Russia attacks innocent Ukrainians on their own land, the higher the risk of further targetted attacks on fascist Russians inside Russia
Nice try to to camouflage the fascist nature of the Ukroregime. Their ideology is WWII Nazi collaborators' Ukrainian ultranationalism, their heroes are WWII Ukrainian Waffen-SS
criminals, they invaded Donbass under motto "Be Ukrainian or be dead". It's obvious who is fascist.
@fallaffel
Do you think the Russian soldiers and Wagner mercenaries are any better? I doubt it.
These few hundred Azov et al (who were supposedly all captured in Mariupol) are not invading a foreign country
Sure the Russians are better. Hitler and SS are not their heroes.
Azov and other frontline units are just a tip of the iceberg. Apart from them there are political movements like "National Corps", "Svoboda", C-14 and other with absolutely nazi ideology and rituals. In Russia one can get a real prison term for such activity.
@Nemo
The Russians are running out of ordnance
Geez, again?? I keep hearing the "Russians are out of ammo / tanks / planes / soldiers" stories since March.
If I were to add up all the Russian claims of destroyed western systems, the number might well exceed the number actually delivered.
Russians are rather conservative in their claims. They produced nothing like "Ghost of Kyev" story. And Ukrainian claims of destroyed Russian hardware are really weird, they already "destroyed" almsot everything that was made in the USSR and Russia put together.

Ukroorcs are unable to launch any sizeable counteroffensive, they just sit in cities and towns under protection of human shields, meanwhile the Russians are calmly taking one fortified area after another.
