According to the plant's Russian management, the drone hit a turbine building and reportedly caused a hole in a wall. Important nuclear equipment was not damaged, the company said.
The Russian state nuclear energy company Rosatom claims that it was a deliberate and targeted attack by Ukraine. Ukraine dismisses the accusations as a Russian "propaganda campaign."
"Along the relevant part of the front line, there was no active fighting at the time of the incident, and no weapons were used," the military wrote in a statement.
Russian authorities and media are also reporting several Ukrainian attacks on Russian energy infrastructure during the night leading up to Sunday.
