Ukraine kills nuclear plant’s pro-Russian security chief with car bomb

“A just retribution awaits every war criminal,” Ukraine’s military intelligence agency said.

The security chief at a Russia-controlled nuclear power plant in southern Ukraine was killed in a car bombing Friday, according to Russian and Ukrainian authorities.

Andriy Korotkyy, head of security at the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, died after his car exploded on Friday morning in the Russian-occupied Ukrainian city of Enerhodar.

“A homemade explosive device was planted under the vehicle of the head of the security,” Russia’s Investigative Committee said in a statement on Telegram.

“When the man got into the car, it detonated. The victim died in the hospital from his injuries,” the committee said, adding that it was opening a murder investigation.

Ukraine’s Military Intelligence Directorate, also known as GUR, seemingly took responsibility for the blast that killed Korotkyy, calling him a “war criminal” and posting a video of a white SUV exploding on Telegram.

“Korotkyy is a collaborator involved in the organization and execution of war crimes and repression of Ukrainians under occupation,” the agency said, accusing him of providing lists of the nuclear power plant’s employees “with a pro-Ukrainian position” to Russian occupiers.

“A just retribution awaits every war criminal,” the agency added. “Glory to Ukraine!”

Moscow took control of the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, the largest such facility in Europe, shortly after it invaded Ukraine in early 2022. It is located about 50 kilometers southwest of the city of Zaporizhzhia, home to more than 700,000 people.

There is widespread concern about the safety of the plant, with shelling and drone strikes nearby prompting the United Nations' nuclear watchdog in August to issue a warning about a nuclear disaster.

Korotkyy is not the first Russian-allied official to die in a car bombing by Ukrainian intelligence. Mikhail Filiponenko, a pro-Russian lawmaker and ex-militiaman in occupied eastern Ukraine, was killed in a similar attack last November, with the GUR promising to punish other high-profile collaborators.

We should have given Ukraine more weapons earlier, says ex-NATO chief

“I’m proud of what we have done, but it would have been a great advantage if it started earlier,” Jens Stoltenberg said.

Ukraine’s allies should have supplied Kyiv with more arms before Moscow’s full-scale invasion to prevent the war, NATO’s former chief said Friday.

“If there’s anything I in a way regret and see much more clearly now is that we should have provided Ukraine with much more military support much earlier,” Jens Stoltenberg told the Financial Times. “I think we all have to admit, we should have given them more weapons pre-invasion.”

Stoltenberg, a former Norwegian prime minister, led NATO between 2014 and 2024, making him the second-longest-serving chief in the alliance’s history. Prior to Moscow’s full-scale invasion in early 2022, he said, “sending lethal weapons [to Ukraine] was a big discussion.”

“Most allies were against that, pre-invasion … they were very afraid of the consequences,” he said. “I’m proud of what we have done, but it would have been a great advantage if it started earlier.

“It maybe could even have prevented the invasion, or at least made it much harder for [Russia] to do what they’ve done.”

Throughout the conflict, Kyiv has begged its Western allies for more advanced weapons, including long-range missiles, battle tanks and Patriot air defense systems. Some, such as Germany, eventually relented on some requests while steadfastly refusing others.

Ukraine’s allies “should have given them more advanced weapons, faster, after the invasion,” Stoltenberg said. “I take my part of the responsibility,” he added.

During Stoltenberg’s decade at the NATO helm, the alliance withdrew from Afghanistan at the initiative of the United States. Stoltenberg said NATO’s speedy departure from the country amounted to a broken promise not to leave until “the Afghans can protect their own country and ensure the Taliban doesn’t return.”

He also presided over NATO during former U.S. President Donald Trump’s term and was lauded for keeping the alliance together, even as Trump repeatedly threatened to pull out unless other members boosted their military spending.

“Whether it was a 10 per cent likelihood that NATO would collapse under Trump or 90 per cent, it didn’t change what we had to do,” Stoltenberg said.

Stoltenberg was replaced by former Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte on Tuesday and is expected to take a new role as chairman of the Munich Security Conference.
