Background:

  • A group of IAEA experts monitoring the ZNPP between 14 and 21 August recorded several explosions and sounds of gunfire heard on the plant.
  • The mission experts had the opportunity to inspect several objects of the ZNPP after Ukraine's statements about the Russians mining the nuclear power plant.
  • Rotations of experts of permanent monitoring missions of the IAEA were successfully completed at the Rivne, Khmelnytskyi, and Pivdennoukrainska NPPs at the beginning of July 2023: the ninth group of experts has begun its work.
