Details: Orlov commented on the occupiers’ provocation as they fired at a car near the ZCHPP, for which they blame the Armed Forces of Ukraine. According to preliminary reports, one man was killed as a result of the attack and several other people were injured.
Quote from Orlov: "The occupiers blamed the Armed Forces of Ukraine for this, as usual. But the circumstances of the incident raise a lot of questions. Based on the occupiers' video showing the damaged car with virtually even-sized bullet holes, the car was attacked from a very close distance, likely with the use of a machine gun. At the moment we are trying to determine whether a person has indeed been killed as a result of the incident".
Updated at 18:02: The mayor of Enerhodar reported that the driver of the car that took fire in the area of the Zaporizhzhia Combined Heat and Power Plant has been confirmed dead. The man, born in 1978, was pronounced dead at the scene. Another man, born in 1996, was seriously injured and is in intensive care.
