The head of the International Atomic Energy Agency said Russian troops risked causing an accident with their capture of the “very, very dangerous” Chernobyl nuclear power plant in Ukraine.
Thirty-six years after the world’s worst nuclear disaster, the agency’s director general, Rafael Mariano Grossi, said that while radiation levels at the damaged plant were normal, the situation was still “unstable”. He said on Tuesday that nuclear authorities should continue to be on high alert.
Russian troops entered the Chernobyl no-fly zone in February on their way to the Ukrainian capital. They withdrew late last month after Russia withdrew its forces from areas near Kiev and shifted its focus to fighting in eastern Ukraine.
