The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) is investigating a possible drone attack at the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant, where operators have reported damage to vehicles. The incident took place just 600 meters from the reactor, and the IAEA found traces of a fire but no drone fragments. IAEA director Rafael Grossi warned that such an attack would be unacceptable and jeopardize nuclear safety. The incident revives fears about nuclear risks in conflict zones.
