The Russian Defense Ministry stressed that Moscow would respond harshly in the event of such an attack. Russia believes that Kiev's move would contaminate a large area around.

Meanwhile, on the same day, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky stated that his forces were "reinforcing" their positions in Russia's Kursk province, where Kiev had launched a large-scale cross-border attack.

"General (Oleksandr) Syrsky reported on strengthening our forces' positions in Kursk and expanding this stable territory," Zelensky said. Syrsky is the commander-in-chief of the Ukrainian army.

According to RT (Russia), in a statement on August 17, the Russian Defense Ministry said that officials are taking very seriously reports of Kiev's planned attack on the Kursk Nuclear Power Plant, located about 90 km from the Ukraine-Russia border, the facility that has become the scene of fierce fighting in recent days.

The statement came after Russian military journalist Marat Khairullin cited sources saying on August 16 that Kiev was preparing “a nuclear false flag operation – a dirty atomic bomb explosion” targeting spent nuclear fuel storage sites at a nuclear power plant.

According to journalist Khairullin, the attack could also target Russia's Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant in Energodar - also not far from the front line - or the Kursk Nuclear Power Plant in Kurchatov.

However, Ukraine has denied this accusation.

The Kursk nuclear power plant, which is crucial to the electricity supply of several neighboring regions, is still operating normally, according to Russian officials.
