Galushchenko shows G7 ambassadors debris from Russian drone that attacked Chornobyl NPP

That's according to the Ukrainian Energy Ministry, Ukrinform reports.

Special attention was given to the unauthorized rotation of IAEA experts at the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP), which took place under Russian pressure and blackmail.

"The rotation of IAEA experts at ZNPP must occur only with the approval of the Ukrainian authorities and in full respect of Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity. Any actions contrary to this violate international law and national legislation," Galushchenko said.

He also briefed the ambassadors on the situation at other Ukrainian nuclear power plants and the threats posed by Russian attacks near nuclear facilities.

A key topic of discussion was the unprecedented Russian drone attack on the Chornobyl Nuclear Power Plant's confinement structure and the serious threats it poses.

To underscore the gravity of the attack, Galushchenko presented the diplomats with debris from a Russian Geran-2 drone, serving as material evidence of the strike.

He stressed the need for continued support from G7 nations and the international community to ensure nuclear and radiation safety in Ukraine and the region. He also urged increased pressure on Russia to end its aggression against Ukraine's energy infrastructure.

The Ukrainian Foreign Ministry earlier condemned the rotation of IAEA experts at ZNPP through Russian-occupied territory, denouncing the agency's violation of Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity.
