The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has warned the continued shelling around Europe’s largest nuclear power plant in Zaporizhzhia must “stop immediately.”
The head of the IAEA Rafael Grossi said that which ever side is responsible for the shelling it must stopped and blasted that this is “extremely disturbing,” and it is “completely unacceptable.”
Grossi has once again renewed his urgent appeal to both Kyiv and Moscow to agree and implement a nuclear safety and security zone around the plant for the protection of Europe.
