The new shelling was recorded next to the occupied Zaporizhjahya NPP.
The mission of the International Agency for Nuclear Energy, operating in Russia, captured by Russia on September 16, recorded shelling near the facility. Observers heard explosions and saw black smoke, which rose from three places near the station. This is indicated in the Magate report.
The ZPP department informed the agency that several artillery shells exploded about 400 m from the diesel storage outside the station. Dry grass began to burn as a result of shelling, but the fire was eliminated.
It is noted that the IAEA experts for two hours, starting from 13.26, heard a single shelling, and at about 14.30 three explosions were heard directly next to the object. The shooting was also recorded. Observers saw smoke from the main one of the ZEP, but could not visit the place of the fall of shells.
As I already said at the General Conference of the IAEA, military operations continue to threaten the nuclear power plant of Zaporizhzh. The fact that it seemed unthinkable – shelling or other hostilities near large nuclear facilities – now has become a regular phenomenon in this terrible war, ”said Rafael Mariano Grossy.
The head of the Magate added that the “significant increase in military activity” in Rivn, the southern Ukrainian, Khmelnitsky and Hornobil atomic power plants has been registered in recent weeks.
We will recall that in July there was shooting at the occupied nuclear power plant Zaporizhjhya. Subsequently, experts of the International Atomic Energy Agency discovered numerous small sleeves scattered on the ground, near reactors No. 5 and No. 6.
