Situation with Nuclear Power Plants in Ukraine Is Getting More and More Dangerous – IAEA

Any hostilities threatening the safety of Ukrainian nuclear facilities must be stopped immediately, as IAEA Director General Rafael Gross said in his Twitter account.

According to Grossi, the situation with nuclear safety in the country is getting unstable.

“Complete and simultaneous loss of off-site power supply by Ukrainian nuclear power plants demonstrates that the situation with nuclear safety in the country is getting more and more unstable, difficult and potentially dangerous”, Grossi said.

The IAEA’s Director General noted that this was the first case when all nuclear power plants in Ukraine had lost the off-site power supply simultaneously.

"It was something unimaginable before this tragic war. This is highly concerning. Any hostilities threatening the safety of Ukrainian nuclear facilities must be stopped immediately", Rafael Grossi said.
