Der Spiegel: Ucraina transformă Cernobîl-ul într-o fortăreață. Rusia ar putea lansa o nouă invazie din Belarus • Newsweek România
Ukraine is fortifying the Chernobyl area in anticipation of a potential new Russian invasion from Belarus. Defensive measures include trenches, protective nets against drones, and fortified positions. The strategic importance of Chernobyl, close to the Belarus border, is heightened by past incursions. Preparations aim to prevent a repeat of the 2022 invasion scenario. Concerns also arise regarding the nuclear infrastructure, particularly after a drone attack in 2025 that damaged the protective structure over reactor 4, raising fears about radioactive material safety.
