Russian strike drones were spotted at a dangerous distance from Ukrainian nuclear facilities - Khmelnytskyi NPP and over the Chornobyl zone. This is stated in the IAEA report.
Thus, the International Atomic Energy Agency states that at the Khmelnytskyi NPP drones were recorded at a distance of up to 5 km from the station. The team at the Chornobyl NPP site reported that they heard the sounds of a drone and anti-aircraft fire at the Chornobyl NPP site on the evening of July 9, and the site management informed them that the drone flew over an open switchgear and was intercepted by the Ukrainian military.
Also, IAEA teams that were present at all sites — Khmelnytskyi, Rivne, South Ukraine NPPs and the Chornobyl NPP site — reported that they heard air raid sirens almost every day last week.
As the Ukrainian News agency earlier reported, in early June of this year, Western media outlets wrote, citing their own sources, that russia wanted to restart the Zaporizhzhia NPP.
Shortly before the media publications, the head of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), Rafael Grossi, stated that in the conditions of a full-scale war, there was no possibility of restarting the Zaporizhzhia NPP.
And at the end of June, the IAEA stated that russia allegedly agrees that the Zaporizhzhia NPP cannot be restarted due to the proximity of the front line.
In May, The New York Times wrote that the russians are https://ukranews.com/en/news/1084418-russia-building-power-line-to-connect-zaporizhzhia-npp-to-its-power-grid-nyt in the occupied territories to connect the Zaporizhzhia NPP to their power system.
