The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) is ready to urgently start consultations on the establishment of a nuclear safety and security protection zone at the Russian-occupied Zaporizhia Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP).

"There is an urgent need for interim measures to prevent a nuclear accident arising from physical damage caused by military means. This can be achieved by the immediate establishment of a nuclear safety and security protection zone. The IAEA is ready to start immediately the consultations leading to the urgent establishment of such a nuclear safety and security protection zone at the ZNPP," the IAEA said in a report on the results of a mission to the Zaporizhia Nuclear Power Plant.
