Korotkiy was the security boss at the Zaporizhzhia power plant – which was seized by Russia in March 2022.

He reportedly died in hospital following the blast.

The footage was released by Ukraine’s military intelligence directorate, the GUR.

A statement from the GUR said his condition was unknown after the massive explosion.

“It is currently unknown whether he survived,” said the GUR.

But the Russian Investigative Committee said later that a criminal case had been opened after a man died in an explosion in a car belonging to a security officer at the power plant.

Russian occupation official Vladimir Rogov confirmed the dead man was Korotskiy.

Mirotvorets website,  which lists “enemies of Ukraine”, reported him dead after today’s 7am car explosion.

The Ukrainians claimed he was “a collaborator who, after the seizure of the ZNPP, voluntarily went to cooperate with the Russian Federation.

“He gave the Russians lists of station employees with their personal data, pointing to citizens with a pro-Ukrainian position.”

He is accused of participating in “repressions against nuclear power plant personnel [and] war crimes against civilians of the temporarily occupied  Enerhodar.”

Korotkiy had been active in promoting the United Russia political party – the main grouping backing dictator Vladimir Putin, according to Mirotvorets which called him a “collaborator with the Russian fascist occupiers and terrorists”.

The GUR said that all war criminals would “answer for their crimes”.

In September a top Russian colonel was found dead near Moscow as Ukraine vowed “every war crime will be punished”.

Aleksey Kolomeitsev, 51, was regarded as one of Vladimir Putin‘s top cronies as he trained up Russia‘s kamikaze drone unit and was directly involved in the full-scale invasion, according to Ukraine‘s military.

And earlier this year one of Vladimir Putin’s puppet politicians Denis Kharitonov narrowly avoided death after his car exploded.

Dramatic footage shows the car engulfed in a raging fireball on the side of a motorway after he made a desperate escape.
