The International Atomic Energy Agency’s inspectors still haven’t found any explosive devices in or around the Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant. “International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) experts have in recent days continued to inspect parts of Ukraine’s Zaporizhzhya Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP) – without seeing any mines or explosives – but are still waiting to gain the necessary access to the rooftops of reactor units 3 and 4 following recent reports that explosives may have been placed there, Director General Rafael Mariano Grossi said,” the IAEA reported in a statement issued yesterday. “In recent days, the IAEA experts have heard a series of explosions apparently taking place some distance away from the ZNPP but still a stark reminder of potential nuclear safety and security risks facing the facility during the military conflict in the country.”
