Details

Ukrainian troops remain in the Kursk region of Russia, but they are about 40 km from the station.

The situation is serious because there has been a military breakthrough and this breakthrough has reached a stage where it is not that far from a nuclear power plant

Grossi visited the Kursk nuclear power plant, which consists of four reactors, last month and said the plant would be “extremely vulnerable” to an attack because it lacks a protective dome.

In his comments before the start of the debate at the UN General Assembly, he expressed hope that favorable circumstances would allow him not to return to the station.

I hope that there will be no need to return to Kursk Station, as this will mean that the situation has stabilized,

According to Grossi, the IAEA has no plans to station permanent observers at the plant – unlike four Ukrainian nuclear power plants, including the Zaporizhzhia plant, which was seized by Russian forces in the early days of the February 2022 invasion.

Grossi said that the situation at the Zaporizhia NPP remains tense, with each side regularly accusing the other of planning an attack on the plant.

My experts continue to report military activity near the station,

Grossi has visited the Zaporizhia nuclear power plant five times since the beginning of the invasion and urged both sides to exercise restraint to avoid a nuclear accident.
