Drone Attack on Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant 'Came Close' to Causing Accident - IAEA Head

International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Director General Rafael Grossi has voiced concern about the latest drone attack on the Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant.

"Every time situations like these happen we get close to it, so it’s not an artificial or imaginative scenario," Grossi said.

He also mentioned that he intends to discuss this attack at the UN Security Council.

On Sunday, Ukrainian forces carried out a kamikaze drone attack against the Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant, immediately after a team of IAEA specialists conducted an inspection of the facility.

  •  Moscow will raise the issue of the Ukrainian military’s attack on the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant at one of the forthcoming meetings of the UN Security Council on Ukraine, Russia's permanent representative Vasily Nebenzya said while answering media questions.


"At one of the upcoming meetings on Ukraine we will raise this issue," he said.

"We are calling on the international community to condemn these irresponsible and extremely dangerous actions," Nebenzya added, stressing that Western countries, supplying Kiev with weapons and ammunition, "should be held responsible for these reckless actions of the Ukrainian authorities."
