The head of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), Rafael Mariano Grossi, condemned a drone strike on a reactor at Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant, emphasizing that attacks on nuclear facilities pose serious risks and must cease immediately.
Grossi highlighted the escalation of nuclear safety and security dangers caused by such attacks, warning of the potential for a major nuclear accident and the undermining of reactor integrity.
IAEA reported no structural damage affecting nuclear safety at Zaporizhzhia, but Grossi stressed the seriousness of the incident and the need to avoid compromising the containment system.
Russian Foreign Ministry blamed Ukraine for the strike, while Ukrainian intelligence sources denied involvement, with independent verification by The Guardian remaining unattainable.
