Guardian, 01 Sep 2022
A delegation from the International Atomic Energy Agency [IAEA] has arrived in Zaporizhzhia to inspect Europe's biggest power plant.
Recent bombardment in the area has led to fears of a catastrophe, with both Ukraine and Russia trading blame for the attacks.
'My mission is a technical mission. It is a mission that seeks to prevent nuclear accident,' said Rafael Grossi, IAEA chief. He added that the plant is a Ukrainian facility despite being currently occupied by Russian forces.
