(Worthy News) – The United Nations nuclear agency completed its first tour of the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant in southern Ukraine on Thursday and will stay at the Russian-occupied facility amid nearby fighting.
“There is a lot more to do – my team is staying on,” International Atomic Energy Agency Director General Rafael Grossi said in a video after touring “key parts” of the nuclear plant. “Most importantly, we are establishing a continued presence by the IAEA here.”
The 14-person team’s journey to the plant was delayed by several hours on Thursday amid fierce fighting in the area. [ Source: Fox News (Read More…) ]
