The Director General of the Agency, Rafael Grossi, also inspected the pumping station to provide water.
A cooling tower at the Russian-occupied Zaporozhye nuclear power plant was damaged by fire last month. Therefore, the building will probably have to be demolished. The head of the IAEA, Rafael Grossi, said this during his next visit to the Zaporizhzhya Nuclear Power Plant, Reuters reports.
“Until now we have not reached this point, at the height of the tower, so we can better assess the damage it caused. This large structure is not suitable for future use, so it will probably be demolished one day,” the statement said. official
Grossi also inspected a pumping station to supply water, which has been in short supply since the Kakhovka dam in southern Ukraine collapsed last year, and visited a nuclear fuel storage facility.
Earlier it was reported that Rafael Grossi arrived in Kyiv to discuss support for Ukrainian nuclear power plants with the heads of the Ministry of Energy, the State Nuclear Regulatory Authority and Energoatom before traveling to the occupied Zaporizhia NPP.
