Report comes on same day as Russian colonel’s death in Berdiansk car bomb attack is confirmed
The UN’s nuclear watchdog has called for the creation of a security zone around the Zaporizhzhia plant on the frontline of Russia’s war in Ukraine, in a long-awaited report that detailed extensive damage there.
The International Atomic Energy Agency, which sent a team of inspectors to Zaporizhzhia last week, said it was “gravely concerned” about the “unprecedented” situation at the plant, which is controlled by Russian forces but operated by Ukrainian technicians, and urged interim measures to prevent a nuclear disaster.
