Today, another 205 of our warriors have returned home from Russian captivity. Our ability to bring our people back is the result of the bravery of our soldiers who skillfully fight and capture the occupiers. We must bring all our people home. I also held a Staff meeting, where one of the key topics was the protection of Ukraine’s skies — particularly, the downing of Shahed drones, including with the use of other drones. This is one of the most advanced technologies in modern warfare. The coming weeks are expected to be very active for Ukraine in diplomacy. We are planning new measures to increase pressure on Russia—to protect our people. I thank everyone who stands with Ukraine.

We can't show you our great results stopping ruzzia's Shahed drones with Wild Hornets STING interceptors But we can show how our interceptors finish ruzzian long-range Gerbera drones Gerberas started as decoys to distract air defenders, but are now also used for strikes, recon and signal relay Thank you for helping to fund costly R&D for ground-breaking Wild Hornets interceptors NATO officials now say these kinds of drones are crucial for their defense You help Ukraine lead the way Please join us in funding more innovative Wild Hornets drones for the 155th "Anna of Kyiv" Brigade to keep turning Pokrovsk into a cemetery for ruzzia's terrorist regime⤵

Together with IAEA Director General Rafael Mariano Grossi, we took part in the opening of a new permanent exhibition at the National Chornobyl Museum: “Chornobyl: People and Meanings.” I received a report from Minister of Internal Affairs of Ukraine Ihor Klymenko on the work carried out to mitigate the consequences of the Russian drone strike on the confinement structure on February 14, 2025, as well as the importance of continued support from partners. It is important to remember the damage Russia inflicted during the occupation of the Chornobyl Nuclear Power Plant and the threat that Russian strikes pose to global nuclear safety. I am grateful to the staff of the National Chornobyl Museum for this important work and for preserving the memory of the catastrophe at the Chornobyl Nuclear Power Plant. Our deepest gratitude to all the liquidators of this disaster.

Forty years ago, the world faced one of the largest nuclear disasters – the fourth reactor of the Chornobyl Nuclear Power Plant exploded. A significant amount of radioactive material was released. Hundreds of thousands of people have been dealing with the consequences of that tragedy for years. To contain the radiation, a sarcophagus was built over the destroyed reactor. Later, more than 40 countries enclosed it with the New Safe Confinement to prevent further disasters. These two structures are what protect against radioactive releases and contamination. Their maintenance and protection are in everyone’s interest. But through its war, Russia is once again bringing the world to the brink of a man-made disaster – Russian-Iranian “shaheds” regularly fly over the plant, and one of them struck the confinement last year. The world must not allow this nuclear terrorism to continue, and the best way is to force Russia to stop its reckless attacks. We remember everyone who gave their lives while dealing with the aftermath of this tragedy. May all the victims of the Chornobyl disaster rest in peace. UNITED24 Media

No one could have imagined that decades after Chornobyl – after everything countries have done to ensure radiation safety and protect lives – someone would want to turn Chornobyl, the facilities that remain here, and the Exclusion Zone itself into a territory of war. And the worst thing is that when the Russians came to Chornobyl, it became clear that they had absolutely no understanding of where they had come and what this place was. This is important to understand about today’s Russia – about this state, about what remains of their culture, and about how they treat people, how they treat life as a whole. The Russians tried to advance on Kyiv through this territory and seize the capital. They dug military positions here in restricted forests, drove military equipment across this land, deployed artillery here and fired from this area, destroyed equipment, and abused our people who work at the Chornobyl plant and associated facilities. Some of our Ukrainian servicemembers, including those from the National Guard of Ukraine who were guarding the Chornobyl Nuclear Power Plant, are still, unfortunately, in captivity in Russia. From an address marking the 40th anniversary of the Chornobyl disaster (1/3)

I am pleased to welcome to Ukraine the President of Moldova, Maia Sandu. We value this visit on such a meaningful day, when we remember the Chornobyl disaster and the colossal solidarity and selflessness of our people, which made it possible to protect our country and our entire region, all of Europe and the world from an even greater radiation catastrophe. Today, Maia and I focused primarily on issues of security, our cross-border cooperation, the protection and development of infrastructure and energy, and we also had a very substantive discussion on our shared path toward the European Union. We are now working to ensure that all six clusters are opened as soon as possible and that EU membership becomes our shared success – for Ukraine, Moldova, and the entire European Union. Ukraine will continue to support Moldova on security issues – in particular with regard to the Transnistrian region. We are also ready to further develop our trilateral formats together with Romania. I personally thank Maia and all of Moldova for supporting Ukraine and for cooperation that strengthens our entire region.

Today marks the first visit by a President of Honduras to Ukraine since we regained our independence. It is very important that Ukraine’s partners come here and see with their own eyes what Ukrainians are going through. That is why we are grateful for this visit at this particular moment. We discussed with Nasry Asfura the key directions for the development of our bilateral relations: trade, the agricultural sector, the economy, and digitalization. Honduras is interested in this, and we are ready to help here. Security was also discussed. Today, in military technologies, particularly drones, Ukraine is among the strongest in the world. We are ready to help those who help us. I thank the President and his team for supporting us on all key geopolitical platforms. On the one hand, Ukraine must defend itself, and we need air defenses to protect the lives of our people. On the other hand, we need the same level of protection for our geopolitical interests so that this Russian war ultimately ends with a reliable peace. Thank you!

We have one goal: to strengthen our troops so they can effectively stand up to the enemy! 🐝🚀 That’s why we build tools that actually work. We don’t just talk or promise — we prove it with action. Thanks to our partners, we’re equipping soldiers with STING interceptor drones. And the Спільнота Стерненка was the first to believe in our idea — their support, together with the efforts of our troops, has helped STING deliver very strong results. To protect our cities effectively, you need about twice as many interceptors as the number of incoming Shahed-style drones. And FPV STING drones are among the most effective — that’s what the military says.

❗️The Russian tactic is to hit certain cities in a concentrated manner. Now the Shahed is back in the sky, — Zelensky The main points of the president’s address: ▪️The Russians are trying to hit more than 300 “Shaheds” every night. Our defenders shoot down a significant part of them, but not all of them. ▪️The Russian army also continues to use hundreds of special drones – “Shahed” imitators in each of its strikes. ▪️We are doing everything to ensure that Ukraine receives as many means as possible to shoot down drones, to shoot down missiles. ▪️We are investing in our own production – primarily drones, including interceptor drones. ▪️We are approaching a multi-level agreement on new Patriots. ▪️We will continue our active drone operations on Russian territory in response to their strikes ▪️We are preparing some non-standard steps to strengthen support for Ukraine. ▪️A draft law on the military ombudsman has been prepared for the second reading.

Radiation sees no borders or national flags. The Chornobyl disaster demonstrated how rapidly deadly threats can emerge. Tens of thousands of people mitigated the Chornobyl disaster at the cost of their own health and lives, eliminating its terrible consequences in 1986 and the years after. For 35 days in 2022, Russia occupied the Chornobyl Nuclear Power Plant. Russian soldiers looted laboratories, captured guards and abused personnel, as well as used the station to launch further military operations. For 785 days now, Russian terrorists have held hostage the Zaporizhzhia NPP. And it is the entire world's responsibility to put pressure on Russia to ensure that ZNPP is liberated and returned to full Ukrainian control, as well as that all Ukrainian nuclear facilities are protected from Russian strikes. This is the only way to prevent new radiation disasters, which the Russian occupiers' presence at ZNPP constantly threatens. We remember the dedication of the people who saved lives in 1986. We appreciate everyone who is helping to save lives right now.

I thank each of our combat brigades, all soldiers, and commanders who are using all their strength to destroy the enemy, especially by effectively deploying our drone capabilities. Our Ukrainian Defense and Security Forces are already gaining an advantage in this area – in July, our soldiers deployed more drones than the occupiers. This needs to be a steady trend on the front – across all types of drones available to our units: from FPV to all others, including our long-range drones – which are already having a strategic impact on the war. Impacting – in the interests of Ukraine. And our Ukrainian leadership in drones can not only be a factor that brings a just end to the war closer but also makes Ukraine a supplier of security for other states. Today, Mykhailo Fedorov, Vice Prime Minister for Innovations, Development of Education, Science and Technologies, and Oleksandr Kamyshin, Minister of Strategic Industries of Ukraine, also reported at the Staff meeting on drone production and financing. For this year, a million drones have already been contracted with our manufacturers, and by the end of the year, there will be more. Our drone production capabilities are consistently expanding. We're working not only with state funding but also with partners who are investing in our drone manufacturing. These drones are crucial for our defense now and will later enhance security for everyone who values life and stands with us in solidarity.

40 years since Chornobyl: 10 facts about the largest man-made disaster of the 20th century. ▪️ The tragedy could have happened earlier. The first serious accident at the Chornobyl Nuclear Power Plant did not occur in 1986, but four years earlier. On September 14, 1982, part of the radioactive fuel entered the graphite structure of the reactor. Gamma radiation levels in some rooms exceeded safe limits by 100 times, and localized contamination was detected around the plant. Instead of a public investigation, the KGB classified the incident. ▪️ 400 times more powerful than Hiroshima. The explosion of Reactor No. 4 became the largest man-made accident in history (Level 7 on the INES scale). About 400 times more radioactive material was released into the atmosphere than during the Hiroshima bombing. The total release was around 5,300 petabecquerels, several times more than the 2011 Fukushima accident. ▪️ Who first reported the accident. The first alarm came from Sweden: on April 28, detectors at the Forsmark nuclear plant (1,100 km from Chornobyl) detected radioactive particles. After analysis, Sweden concluded the source was the USSR. Only then did Moscow release a vague statement on national television. In Kyiv, the KGB blocked foreign journalists, and the public was told not to panic. ▪️ Hiding the truth. On July 8, 1986, the USSR’s KGB issued a classified document ordering the secrecy of all information about the accident at Chornobyl. Classified were the scale of destruction, radiation levels, contamination of food and water, cases of radiation sickness, and details of cleanup operations. ▪️ Soviet disinformation. Knowing about the accident, a football match between Dynamo and Spartak in Kyiv still took place, attended by 80,000 spectators. Even on May 1, people were forced to participate in May Day parades. Later, elevated radiation levels were detected on schoolchildren’s clothing. ▪️ Evacuation only 36 hours later. On April 27, residents of Prypiat were told via radio about a “temporary evacuation.” They were told to bring documents and essentials and assured they would return in three days. About 44,500 people were evacuated within hours. By the end of summer, over 90,000 people were relocated from 81 settlements. ▪️ Scale of the disaster. Contamination affected over 2,300 towns and villages in Ukraine, with about 2.6 million residents. In total, around 8.5 million people in Ukraine, Belarus, and Russia were exposed to radiation in the first days. Fallout covered an area of about 200,000 square km. ▪️ The sarcophagi over Chornobyl. To prevent further radiation spread, a protective structure called the “Shelter Object” was built over Reactor No. 4 in 1986 in just 206 days. It was intended to last 20-30 years. In 2016, a new safe confinement structure was installed - a 109-meter-high, 36,000-ton arch designed for about 100 years of operation. ▪️ Occupation of Chornobyl in 2022. At the start of the full-scale invasion, Russian forces seized the site. Their goal was to advance toward Kyiv through the exclusion zone. Equipment movement stirred radioactive dust, and power systems for nuclear waste storage were disrupted. ▪️ Strike on the shelter. On February 14, 2025, Russian forces struck the Chornobyl shelter with a drone carrying an explosive warhead. The arch was damaged, including its waterproof membrane. Firefighting lasted nearly three weeks. The structure remained intact enough to prevent a radioactive release. 📹 Footage showing Soviet TV misinformation about the Chornobyl accident

The Pentagon is negotiating the purchase of Ukrainian interceptor drones. Just like us, they want to shoot down Iranian Shahed drones without wasting missiles that cost millions of dollars. Our Community helped bring interceptor drones into existence and scale this technology. We believed it was possible when most people thought the idea was crazy. And here we are — another video showing successful interceptions, including Shaheds equipped with cameras (spoiler: it didn’t help them). But you can help the Ukrainian Armed Forces shoot down even more Russian and Iranian drones. Donate and help Ukraine! PayPal (For non-lethal purchases): sternenkopaypal@gmail.com

Dear great people of a great country, I am immensely proud of each of you. I admire each one of you. I believe in each one of you. Any normal person wants the war to end. But none of us will allow Ukraine to end. That is why when it comes to ending the war, we always add: on our terms. That is why, along with the word peace, there is always another word: just. That is why, in the future, the word independent will always appear alongside the word Ukraine. This is what we fight for. And we will prevail. On the greatest day of our lives. I thank all of our soldiers, our people, and everyone around the world who stands with us and the truth. Glory to Ukraine!

We are grateful to every country that is strengthening its national sanctions regimes – this truly helps. And this is a crucial point – that global sanctions should also extend to Russia’s nuclear sector and to all associated legal entities and individuals. We must also speak clearly about the fact that only Ukrainian control, only Ukrainian specialists, and Ukrainian safety protocols can guarantee that there will be no radiation-related risks at the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant. And very importantly, please remember the need to continuously strengthen Ukraine’s air defense and our long-range capabilities. This is not only, quite literally, protection for our people and our infrastructure – including the Chornobyl facilities – it also helps us create a real sense in Russia that they will have to bring this war to an end. From an address marking the 40th anniversary of the Chornobyl disaster (3/3)

Our team is now on its way to the Gulf region, where they can help protect lives and stabilize the situation. We see the challenges that exist now: the Iranian regime has effectively blocked the Strait of Hormuz – one of the main routes for supplying oil and gas to the global market. This is a major source of instability. No one in the world can yet say how long all of this will last, but it is important that the protection of life starts working effectively as soon as possible. Stability is important for us as well. Those now seeking Ukraine’s help must continue to assist our own defense – first and foremost, our air defense. Last year we already proposed a drone agreement to the United States. This is the right way forward: to partner with us in the production and use of drones, and everyone now sees that there is no alternative to this approach. Ukraine has the greatest experience in the world in countering attack drones, and without our experience it will be very difficult for the Gulf region, the entire Middle East, and partners in Europe and America to build strong protection.

Our crews are continuing to work to restore power after Hurricane Helene. We wanted to answer your questions on what assessing damage means and the time that it takes our damage assessors to work. Know that our efforts will continue throughout the night. We have a small team that operates out of our Storm Center in Atlanta to help move thousands of team members efficiently for you. Jason is one of the leaders of this group and will talk more about what assessing conditions means. This is a critical step in our process that allows us to fully evaluate the damage, with the hardest hit areas. We thank our customers for their patience as we work around the clock to get their power restored. For more information, visit

Today, the Russians again struck the special territory around the Chornobyl Nuclear Power Plant. A “shahed” hit one of the buildings of the Centralized Spent Fuel Storage Facility. An extremely critical infrastructure facility – and an extremely vile Russian strike. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine, the Ministry of Energy, and all our services are already working to ensure that each of our partners knows what has happened. Russia deliberately struck this particular nuclear infrastructure facility. As of now, there are no readings exceeding normal background radiation levels. But there is certainly an increase in Russia’s brazenness, which long ago went off the charts. Ukrainian first responders extinguished the fire at this facility after the strike. And real new steps by the world are needed so that the Russians feel that this terrorist war of theirs is a blow to Russia itself. Last night, there were also Russian strikes on other civilian facilities in 13 of our regions. In total, over the course of this past week, Russia launched 88 missiles, more than 3,250 attack drones, and around 1,800 guided aerial bombs against Ukraine. Pressure on Russia must be increased. Thank you to everyone who’s helping!
