Kyiv's fault in the escalation of the nuclear danger is obvious, Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov said, APA reports citing TASS.

Commenting on the visit of International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Director General Rafael Grossi to the Kursk nuclear power plant (NPP), the spokesman said: "Grossi saw the results of the drone attacks on the plant, assessed the threat those attacks could pose, as well as a potential threat that remains."

"For understandable reasons, the IAEA says it is not authorized to name the perpetrator of the attacks, but in this case, it is so obvious that there is no question about it. The guilt of the Ukrainian side in escalating the nuclear danger is more than obvious," Peskov told reporters.
