"Staff at ZNPP Refuse to Activate Reactor No. 4, Causing Concern for Energoatom"

Staff at the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant in Ukraine are refusing to comply with the order from the illegitimate management to start up reactor No. 4. The staff, who have refused to sign fake contracts with Rosatom, are categorically refusing to comply with the order, which violates the operating license issued by the State Nuclear Regulatory Inspectorate of Ukraine. The Russian-appointed "general director" of the plant is attempting to involve Ukrainian staff who have already refused to sign the fake contracts, but their access to the plant has been blocked. The Ukrainian personnel understand that violating the license terms could result in the loss of their personal licenses after the de-occupation of the plant.

Ukraine's Zaporizhzhia NPP Personnel Changes Amid Tensions and Potential Deal with Russia

Energoatom is training personnel who will enter Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) and start working immediately after the plant’s de-occupation. The company is also preparing rotational shift teams at nuclear power plants, who might be needed in case of a personnel shortage at Zaporizhzhia NPP after its de-occupation. Russian occupiers are planning to ‘evacuate’ about 2,700 employees of Zaporizhzhia NPP and their families from the temporarily occupied city of Enerhodar.
