According to information received from the operating organization (NRC KIPT), the situation at the NSI “Neutron Source” remains unchanged.

As of 19 March 2022, 15:00:

  • operational personnel monitor the state of the NSI “Neutron Source”;
  • the nuclear installation has been transferred into a deep subcritical state (“long-term shutdown” mode since 24 February 2022);
  • external power supply to the NSI “Neutron Source” is absent due to the ongoing hostilities in the Pyatykhatky district of Kharkiv, which resulted in damage to the power supply lines, which forced to terminate power supply to the NSI “Neutron Source”;
  • the on-site radiation situation is within the standard limits;
  • personnel continue implementing measures to eliminate the consequences of the latest hostilities and maintain the operability of the nuclear installation equipment.

At the same time, the restoration activities are complicated by hostilities and the danger of new bombings.

Please note the NSI “Neutron Source”, as well as any other nuclear installation, is not designed for use in conditions of combat operations. Continuation of bombing can lead to severe radiation consequences and contamination of the surrounding territories.
