IAEA reported that shelling and fires near the Russian-occupied Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP) destroyed an external radiation monitoring station on June 24. Personnel at the ZNPP informed IAEA experts that the plant lost connection to the radiation monitoring station located 16 kilometers southwest of the main facility. The functioning of off-site radiation monitoring equipment is essential for nuclear safety around the world, and multiple stations within 30 kilometers of ZNPP have suffered damage and lost service since Russia launched its full-scale invasion in 2022. IAEA inspectors were unable to visit the off-site monitoring station due to ongoing fighting in the area.
