After the visit to the Zaporizhzhia NPP, the head of the International Atomic Energy Agency, Raphael Grossi, confirmed that two experts from the mission will remain at the plant.

"We saw everything we asked for", Grossi said, expressing concern about military activity in the area. His biggest concerns are related to the "physical integrity", the power supply of the plant and the situation with its personnel.

The Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant has been under the control of Russian troops since March but its operation, as before, is carried out by Ukrainian specialists. Moscow and Kyiv have been accusing each other for weeks of shelling in the area of ​​the facility.

Russian authorities in Zaporizhzhia said they foiled an attempted Ukrainian landing in nearby Energodar.

Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov has warned Washington against supplying long-range weapons to Ukraine, noting that the United States is teetering on the brink of direct involvement in the conflict.

He repeated that the so-called "special operation" will continue until its objectives are achieved.

During his visit to the Far East next week, President Vladimir Putin will also attend military maneuvers of the Vostok 2022 exercise.
