Russian media report that the Kursk NPP operates in a normal mode, with radiation levels normal. It is also noted that a UAV was allegedly shot down in the Kurchatov area. According to the governor of the Kursk region, explosions occurred in a household building as a result of the UAV crash, which is unrelated to the Kursk NPP.

Let's remind, Russian soldiers are preparing to defend the Kursk NPP due to the approach of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. This is reported by Russian media. According to journalists, Russian security forces blocked the access roads to the Kursk nuclear power plant.
