IAEA and UN Confirm No Explosives Found on Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Plant Roofs

The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has found no mines or explosives on the roofs of the Russian-held Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant in Ukraine. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy had previously claimed that Russia may be planning to "simulate an attack" on the plant. The IAEA was granted access to the roofs of two units after a monthlong wait. Last month, the IAEA team found mines in close proximity to the plant, but they were located in a restricted area controlled by the military.
