'No Immediate Risk' to Nuclear Plant After Ukraine Dam Collapse, Says IAEA Chief
The International Atomic Energy Agency said on June 6 there was “no immediate risk” to the safety of the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant after the breach of the dam at the Nova Kakhovka hydroelectric power plant in Kherson Oblast.
IAEA director general Rafael Mariano Grossi made the remarks in Vienna.
He outlined a number of uses in the plant of water supplied to it from a reservoir associated with the Nova Kakhovka plant.
“Absence of cooling water in the essential cooling water systems for an extended period of time would cause fuel melt and inoperability of the emergency diesel generators,” Grossi said. “However, our current assessment is that there is no immediate risk to the safety of the plant.”
Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky said Russian forces had “internally detonated” the hydro plant shortly before 3 am on Tuesday, putting around 80 settlements in Kherson at risk of flooding.
