"Revealed: Russian Defense Contracts Expose Fears of Nuclear Plant Attack on Home Soil"

Russia is allocating millions of dollars to protect the Smolensk Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) near the Ukrainian border from potential drone attacks. Concerns have been growing after reports of Ukrainian troops attempting a missile attack on the site. Dmitry Medvedev, the deputy chairman of the Russian Security Council, warned of a possible simultaneous strike on nuclear sites in Ukraine and facilities in Eastern Europe if an attack on the NPP is confirmed. The anti-drone system, which will detect, intercept, and jam drone signals, is expected to be operational by early September. The contractor for the project is the Special Technology Center company, known for manufacturing Orlan drones used by Moscow in the war in Ukraine.
