    IAEA Head Says Tower At Zaporizhzhia Station Requires Demolition - Ukraine

    Nuclear fuel rods at fresh fuel storage facility inside Zaporizhzhya Nuclear Power Plant, Ukraine, September 4, 2024. The head of the U.N.'s nuclear watchdog said a cooling tower at Ukraine's Russian-occupied Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant had been badly damaged in a fire last month and would probably have to be demolished. Rafael Grossi, Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency, made the comment on Wednesday during his fifth visit to the plant, which was seized by Russian forces soon after Russia's February 2022 invasion of Ukraine. Moscow and Kyiv have regularly accused each other of attacking the plant and risking a nuclear accident. Photo by IAEA via ABACAPRESS.COM
