Invading Russian forces have ceased the transmission of radiation sensors at the occupied Zaporizhzhya Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP) to Ukraine, Chief State Inspector for Nuclear and Radiation Safety of Ukraine, Oleh Korikov, said at a briefing on June 14.

It’s just theories at this point and I really wish Putin would stop entertaining those…
