The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) vehicle was attacked while performing official duties at the Zaporoge nuclear power plant. The IAEA issued a statement on the 10th, saying that in the afternoon, an official vehicle of the IAEA was attacked by a drone while performing the rotation task of experts stationed at the Zaporoge nuclear power plant, causing serious damage to the vehicle. Fortunately, two agency staff members in the vehicle were not injured. The statement said that the attack occurred about 8 kilometers away from the front line of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict. At that time, the official car went to the handover point with a motorcade, and joined the team of experts of the International Atomic Energy Agency stationed at the Zaborozh nuclear power plant in the past month. A new batch of rotation personnel had arrived at the handover point safely before. The statement also said that at the time of the incident, the driver of another official car of the International Atomic Energy Agency saw a suicide drone flying from the rear and hitting the attacked vehicle. The agency did not specify who launched the attack. Grossi, Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency, strongly condemned the attack on the staff of the Agency and called on all parties to exercise maximum restraint. Since the outbreak of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict in February 2022, Russia and Ukraine have constantly accused each other of attacking nuclear facilities, including the Zaporoge nuclear power plant, and constantly increased the security risks of related facilities.
