Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency Rafael Grossi indicated that “I am deeply concerned about the situation at the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant in light of the ongoing bombing”, noting that “the situation in Zaporozhye remains dangerous despite the restoration of the backup power line.” “I started consultations on the need to urgently create a security zone in Zaporozhye,” he explained.

Today, the operator of the Zaporizhzhya nuclear power plant in Ukraine reported, according to Reuters, that the station has completely stopped working.

Authorities in Moscow and Kyiv are exchanging accusations of bombing nuclear power plants.

The International Atomic Energy Agency, in a 52-page report published on Tuesday, following a visit to the station amid a deteriorating situation at the nuclear power plant, did not bear any responsibility for the damage at the nuclear power plant, but described the situation as “unsustainable, and there is a risk of catastrophe, unless the bombing stops.”

It is noteworthy that in March last year, Russian forces managed to tighten control over the station shortly after the start of military operations in Ukraine.
