IAEA head arrives at occupied ZNPP – mayor of Enerhodar

Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Rafael Grossi has arrived at the Zaporizhia NPP, Dmytro Orlov, mayor of the plant's satellite town Enerhodar has said.

In a report on his Telegram channel, he said that Grossi plans to assess the changes in the situation at the plant, communicate with employees, and also act as a guarantor of the rotation of members of the agency's mission, which has been working at ZNPP since September 2022.

As reported, Grossi said that he intended to visit the Zaporizhia NPP this week.

"It will be the second time Director General Grossi crosses the frontline in order to reach Europe's largest nuclear power plant and the first since he established a permanent presence of IAEA experts at the site in southern Ukraine on 1 September last year," Grossi was quoted as saying by the IAEA.

The situation at the Zaporizhia Nuclear Power Plant is still precarious, the IAEA said.

Grossi will be accompanied by a new group of IAEA experts, the seventh such team present at the site since the IAEA Support and Assistance Mission to Zaporizhia (ISAMZ) was established.
