As a result of the explosion, adjacent metal structures were damaged and windows knocked on cars nearby.
On the night of September 25, the downed drone exploded nearly 800 meters from the perimeter of the South Ukrainian nuclear power plant. This is stated in a statement by the General Director of the IAEA Rafael Grossy.
“Drones fly near nuclear power plants, putting the nuclear risk.
It was noted that the IAEA team received a message from station staff that 22 UAV was noticed in the observation zone late at night and early in the morning, some of which were approaching location at a distance of just 500 m.
“From their residence near the station, members of the Mage team heard the shooting and explosion at about 1:00 local hours, and now they have visited the area of falling one of the drones, observing the crater at the size of four square meters over and a depth of about a meter,” the statement said.
According to the IAEA team, metal structures near the explosion area were struck by fragments, and windows of vehicles near the strike area were damaged. The regional power line was also damaged for 150 kilovolts. It is not connected to the nuclear power plant and has no direct influence on nuclear safety.
The South Ukrainian NPP is one of Ukraine’s three existing nuclear power plants, three of the reactors who are currently producing electricity in full capacity.
