IAEA warns of rising nuclear risks at Zaporizhzhia
The International Atomic Energy Agency has warned of increasing risks threatening nuclear safety at the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant, following a series of drone attacks targeting critical infrastructure and radiation monitoring stations in recent weeks. These attacks, which targeted electrical transformers essential for operating the cooling systems, have disrupted the plant's external power supplies, forcing reliance on emergency diesel generators. The assaults have also caused the disruption of the radiation monitoring station, and one person was injured in an attack on residential buildings in Enerhodar. Director General Rafael Grossi is leading negotiations to de-escalate the situation and implement necessary repairs, emphasizing that targeting nuclear facilities is "unacceptable" and poses the risk of a nuclear accident if such acts do not cease.
