Sept 01,2022:Investigators from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) have arrived at the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant in the Russian-controlled town of Enerhodar on Thursday, amid “increased military activity in the area” and following several delays.
Ukraine has accused Russia of shelling Enerhodar, as well as the agreed upon route of the UN team. Meanwhile, Russia’s defence ministry has accused Ukrainian “saboteurs” of trying to seize the plant.
The Kremlin has denounced the decision by EU foreign ministers to suspend a 2007 visa facilitation deal with Russia over the conflict in Ukraine, which will make visas for Russians traveling to the bloc more expensive, while extending processing times.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov warned of possible countermeasures.
