A team of 14 experts from the United Nations' nuclear watchdog has arrived in Kyiv ahead of their planned visit to the Russian-occupied Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant in southeastern Ukraine later this week, CNN has reported.
Members of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) delegation were seen by CNN reporters at their hotel in the Ukrainian capital early Tuesday.
The visit comes amid renewed shelling at the facility and mounting fears over a potential nuclear accident.
The mission is headed by IAEA chief Rafael Grossi, Ukrainian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Oleh Nikolenko said Monday.
