The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) issued a statement on June 5 condemning recent drone attacks on the training center at the Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant. “The IAEA team based at Ukraine’s Zaporizhzhya Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP) today heard repeated rounds of gunfire that appeared to be aimed at drones reportedly attacking the site’s training center, followed by the sound of multiple explosions, Director General Rafael Mariano Grossi said,” the statement reported. “It was the fourth time this year that the training center, located just outside the site perimeter, was reportedly targeted by unmanned aerial vehicles.”
It quotes Grossi: “Drones flying close to nuclear power plants could threaten their safety and security, with potentially serious consequences. As I have stated repeatedly during the war, such incidents must stop immediately.”
