Ex-US Army Officer Sounds Alarm: Ukraine May Unleash ‘Chernobyl 2.0’ with Kursk Nuclear Meltdown
Former US Army officer Stanislav Krapivnik has issued a stark warning that Ukraine could trigger a catastrophic nuclear disaster, potentially causing a "Chernobyl 2.0," if they attack Russia's Kursk Nuclear Power Plant.
In a recent interview, Krapivnik highlighted the grave risks of targeting the Kursk plant, including the potential for a nuclear meltdown that could spread radioactive fallout across Europe.
His alarming prediction underscores the high stakes of the ongoing conflict and the severe consequences of any military action involving nuclear facilities.

Ukraine marked its Independence Day with a wave of bold drone strikes deep inside Russian territory, sparking massive fires at an oil refinery and a gas terminal in Ust-Luga. One drone even hit the Kursk Nuclear Power Plant, triggering a blaze though no radiation leak was reported. The strikes came just days after Russia dismissed U.S.-brokered peace efforts between Putin and Zelensky, signaling a dramatic escalation in the three-and-a-half-year war. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky declared that Ukraine is “not a victim but a fighter,” as Russia pushed on with its own overnight barrage of missiles and Iranian-made Shahed drones. With tens of thousands dead, millions displaced, and energy infrastructure under siege, the conflict shows no signs of ending. Ukraine’s drone campaign is not just military—it’s economic warfare, aiming to choke Moscow’s vital fuel revenues that fund the grinding war.

Ukraine’s Independence Day was marred by escalating violence as Russia unleashed a massive drone and missile assault, killing two and injuring 33 in Kherson. Ukraine claims to have shot down 71 of 104 drones, but Moscow says Kyiv was the aggressor, targeting the Kursk nuclear plant and Russian energy sites. Fires erupted at facilities in Kursk and Ust-Luga, though no radiation leaks were reported. With Trump’s proposed peace talks stalling, the conflict now resembles a World War 3–like cycle of strikes and counterstrikes.

On Ukraine’s 34th Independence Day, Russian forces capture key villages in Donetsk and Dnipropetrovsk, escalating the war on the eastern front. While Kyiv marks freedom from Soviet rule, the battlefield tells a harsher story, with Russian troops advancing meter by meter, Ukrainian defenses tested, and no breakthroughs from international diplomacy. From nuclear plant incidents in Kursk to stalled peace talks, the conflict continues to claim territory and intensify uncertainty for civilians and soldiers alike.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has begun a high-stakes three-day visit to North Korea, underscoring deepening military ties between Moscow and Pyongyang amid the Ukraine war. Lavrov praised the “invincible brotherhood” between the nations during talks with North Korean Foreign Minister Choe Son-hui in Wonsan. Notably, North Korea had deployed troops to aid Russian forces in repelling Ukraine’s invasion of the Kursk region in 2024.
Lavrov specifically commended the sacrifices of the Korean People’s Army in retaking Sudzha and surrounding villages from what he called “Ukrainian Nazis.” With Kyiv’s offensive now crushed, North Korea is sending more troops for reconstruction efforts in Kursk. Lavrov’s visit signals Russia’s growing pivot towards pariah states as it faces Western isolation. Shoigu confirmed 6,000 North Korean troops would aid with demining and engineering.
