It's as if the US inspired coup in Kiev in February 2014 never happened. Yet it saw the legitimately elected president of Ukraine Viktor Yanukovych forced to flee the country while a neo-Nazi post coup regime took control of the country.

Subsequently, the people of Crimea seeing the coup in Kiev held a referendum and voted to join the Russian Federation. Then other regions in the Donbass (as mentioned earlier) did the same.

This post coup government in Kiev almost immediately launched a war in Donetsk and Lugansk against the mostly Russian speaking people in these regions which finally evolved with Russia initiating its special military operation in February 2022 which continues to this day.

In early August Ukraine launched a military invasion of the Kursk region of Russia where the Kursk nuclear power plant is located. IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi visited this NPP on Monday. He warned that the fighting near the plant poses a risk of a "nuclear incident". [1]

Apparently there was a drone strike that fell next to the plant's storage of spent fuel last week.

Is Russia attacking their own NPP's? Of course not.

The question begs.

When will the IAEA finally make the determination that it is Ukraine behind these attacks?
