IAEA: Situation around Ukrainian nuclear plant “very worrying”

Immediate measures are required to prevent this, including a security zone around the nuclear power plant, according to the report published by the UN agency on Tuesday, which summarizes the findings of the visit by experts to Europe’s largest nuclear power plant last week.

The IAEA is ready to set up such a zone immediately. The situation at the power plant is very worrying. During the investigation, damage was also found near the six reactors and the storage sites for nuclear waste. Although some work has already been carried out to repair the damage, this has not yet been completed.

During their visit to the nuclear power plant, the IAEA inspectors noted the presence of Russian military personnel and armed forces vehicles and equipment. The Ukrainian technicians at the power plant, who are monitored by Russian soldiers, are exposed to great stress that can lead to human error.

According to the Ukrainian military, it had previously destroyed four Russian ammunition depots in the Kherson region. Bridges across the Dnipro were also under fire, the southern command of the Ukrainian armed forces said.
