Director General @rafaelmgrossi said that the IAEA team present at #ZNPP for the past three weeks has been able to transmit information directly to IAEA headquarters in Vienna and conduct their activities without any impediment, restriction or interruption.
DG @rafaelmgrossi: "Until yesterday, there seemed to be less shelling at or near the plant, but this latest episode shows that the danger remains very real. It hasn’t gone away, and we can’t afford to lose any more time."
"I’m determined to do everything I can so that the NSSPZ around #ZNPP becomes reality very soon. My high-level meetings at the @UN this week are crucial to achieve this objective that is of paramount importance in preventing a severe nuclear accident from happening."
