U.N. Inspectors Arrive at Ukraine Nuclear Plant
A team of United Nations inspectors is now at a Russian-occupied nuclear power plant in Ukraine as war rages on around them. It is the largest nuclear power plant in Europe, and their job is to ensure it is stable enough to prevent a disaster.
UN inspectors arrive at the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant in southeast Ukraine.
Ukrainians accuse Russian troops of turning the plant into a military base. The head of the United Nations nuclear watchdog said his team of experts remained on site after reaching the facility.
U.N. inspectors were delayed by several hours today after being fired upon just a few kilometers from the plant’s reactor. Ukraine and Russia are blaming each other.
