«Уже более двух лет ядерные объекты Украины находятся под постоянной угрозой, – напомнил Гросси. – Мы по-прежнему полны решимости сделать все возможное, чтобы свести к минимуму риск ядерной аварии, которая может нанести вред людям и окружающей среде, причем не только в Украине. Пока нам удается стабилизировать ситуацию, но, как мы вновь убедились на этой неделе, ядерные объекты в Украине остаются крайне уязвимыми».
В течение последней недели находящиеся на крупнейшей в Европе атомной электростанции эксперты МАГАТЭ продолжали ежедневно слышать взрывы на разных расстояниях от ЗАЭС. Стрельба из стрелкового оружия была слышна в ночь на 22 марта, а также в среду. Кроме того, накануне на станции сработала сигнализация воздушной тревоги.
Несмотря на все трудности, в течение последней недели эксперты МАГАТЭ продолжали проводить регулярные обходы станции. Утечек замечено не было, сообщил Гросси. По его словам, в ходе осмотров, проведенных за последнюю неделю, группа МАГАТЭ не выявила проблем, связанных с ядерной безопасностью.
В результате обстрела Харьков 22 марта лишился внешнего электроснабжения научно-исследовательский центр, который до начала войны использовался для производства радиоизотопов для медицинских и промышленных целей. В настоящее время объект работает на аварийных дизельных генераторах.
Эксперты МАГАТЭ на Хмельницкой, Ровенской и Южно-Украинской АЭС, а также на Чернобыльской станции сообщили, что ядерная безопасность продолжает поддерживаться несмотря на сигналы воздушной тревоги, неоднократно звучавшие за последнюю неделю. На этой неделе произошла ротация экспертов МАГАТЭ на Чернобыльской АЭС.
МАГАТЭ продолжает поставлять оборудование, необходимое для поддержания ядерной безопасности в Украине. На этой неделе Ровенская АЭС получила портативный рентгеновский аппарат для радиологического контроля, который был закуплен на средства Великобритании. Это была 42-я поставка оборудования в Украину с начала конфликта; общая сумма такой помощи превышает девять миллионов евро.

For over two years now, nuclear facilities in Ukraine have been under constant threat. We must remain committed to minimizing the risk of a nuclear accident that could harm people and the environment, not only in Ukraine. While we have been able to stabilize the situation, recent events have shown that nuclear facilities in Ukraine remain extremely vulnerable.
For over two years now, nuclear facilities in Ukraine have been under constant threat. It is crucial to minimize the risk of a nuclear accident that could harm people and the environment, not only in Ukraine. While we are managing to stabilize the situation, recent events highlight the extreme vulnerability of nuclear facilities in Ukraine. The efforts of the experts from IAEA are commendable in ensuring nuclear safety despite the challenges being faced.
Are there any specific plans in place to enhance the security of Ukraine’s nuclear sites considering the ongoing vulnerabilities mentioned by the Head of the IAEA?
Yes, there are ongoing efforts to enhance the security of Ukraine’s nuclear sites. The IAEA is fully committed to minimizing the risk of a nuclear accident that could harm people and the environment, not only in Ukraine, but also beyond. Despite the challenges, experts continue to conduct regular inspections and maintain nuclear safety measures at various nuclear power stations in Ukraine.
The ongoing vulnerability of Ukraine’s nuclear facilities is a critical issue that demands immediate action. It is essential to prioritize minimizing the risk of a nuclear accident to protect both people and the environment, not just in Ukraine but globally. Despite the challenges, the efforts to stabilize the situation must be intensified as recent events highlight the extreme susceptibility of nuclear sites in Ukraine.
Are there any specific measures being proposed to enhance the security of Ukraine’s nuclear sites mentioned in the article?
Yes, Alex, the IAEA Chief mentioned that they are still fully committed to doing everything possible to minimize the risk of a nuclear accident that could harm people and the environment, not only in Ukraine. Despite the ongoing vulnerabilities, experts have been regularly conducting inspections at the nuclear power stations and have not identified any nuclear safety issues in the past week.
The situation with Ukraine’s nuclear sites is truly concerning. It’s been over two years now that these sites have been vulnerable to various threats. The efforts to minimize the risk of a nuclear accident must be intensified to protect both people and the environment. The recent incidents clearly show that the nuclear sites in Ukraine remain extremely vulnerable. It’s crucial to address these issues promptly.
The situation in Ukraine’s nuclear sites is truly concerning. It’s been more than two years of constant threat, and it’s crucial to minimize the risk of a nuclear accident that could harm people and the environment, not only in Ukraine. Despite efforts to stabilize the situation, the vulnerability of Ukraine’s nuclear facilities remains high. It is worrisome to hear about explosions and gunshots near the power plants, but the experts are diligently monitoring the situation. Let’s hope for continued nuclear safety amidst these challenging times.
Are there any specific measures being taken to enhance the security of Ukraine’s nuclear sites in the face of these ongoing threats?
Yes, the IAEA team is working closely with Ukrainian authorities to implement additional security measures and minimize the risk of a nuclear accident. Regular inspections and patrols are being conducted to ensure the safety of these critical facilities.
For over two years, Ukraine’s nuclear facilities have been under constant threat – Grossi reminded. We remain committed to doing everything possible to minimize the risk of a nuclear accident that could harm people and the environment, not only in Ukraine. While we are managing to stabilize the situation, as we have seen again this week, nuclear facilities in Ukraine remain extremely vulnerable.
The situation in Ukraine’s nuclear sites is alarming and poses a significant risk to both people and the environment. It’s crucial that all necessary measures are taken to minimize the vulnerability of these facilities and prevent any potential nuclear accidents.
The ongoing vulnerability of Ukraine’s nuclear sites is truly concerning. It is imperative to take all necessary measures to minimize the risk of a nuclear accident that could have devastating consequences for both people and the environment, not only within Ukraine. Despite our efforts to stabilize the situation, recent events remind us that Ukraine’s nuclear facilities remain extremely vulnerable. The reports of explosions and gunshots near the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant are alarming, underscoring the critical need for heightened security measures. The continuous monitoring by the IAEA experts is crucial in ensuring nuclear safety under such challenging circumstances.
