Two new satellite images show unidentified white shapes on top of Reactor 4 at the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant
Speaking in a video on Tuesday, President Zelenskyy said:"Now we have information from our intelligence that the Russian troops have placed objects resembling explosives on the roof of several power units of the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant.
"But the sourcing of independent, reliable imagery is important and can help in verifying claims of what is happening at the ZNPP. "However, the images, including the challenges related to verifying what they actually show, also once again stress the importance of granting the IAEA all the access that it is asking for at the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant."
The agency has requested extra access to the rooftops of two reactor units, as well as turbine halls and some parts of the cooling system at the plant to confirm the absence of explosives. IAEA Director General Rafael Mariano Grossi said:"Our experts must be able to verify the facts on the ground. Their independent and objective reporting would help clarify the current situation at the site, which is crucial at a time like this."team is a multi-skilled unit dedicated to providing transparent journalism from Sky News.
