On Tuesday, IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi said that an automobile carrying agency experts was hit by a drone on its way to the Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant. The attack, which could have resulted in a loss of life, "demonstrates the complete disregard of the Ukrainian authorities for generally accepted norms of humanitarian law and any agreements reached, as well as a blatant disrespect for the immunity of employees of international organizations," the diplomat specified. "We note that Kiev's actions constitute an obvious provocation before the extraordinary session of the IAEA Board of Governors convened on its initiative on December 12. We call on the United States, the United Kingdom and their allies to stop any support for the Zelensky regime and take measures to bring to justice those responsible for organizing and carrying out this provocation," the statement read.

Russia Condemns Ukrainian Attack on IAEA Vehicle Bound for Zaporozhye Nuclear Facility
08:47 GMT 11.12.2024 (Updated: 10:16 GMT 11.12.2024) MOSCOW (Sputnik) - Russia has condemned a drone attack by Ukraine on a vehicle carrying International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) staff heading to the Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant for a personnel rotation, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said on Wednesday.
On Tuesday,
IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi said that an automobile carrying agency experts was hit by a drone on its way to the
Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant.
"We condemn in the strongest possible terms these actions of the Kiev regime, which has come to believe in its impunity. We note with indignation that, while committing increasingly monstrous crimes, [Ukrainian President] V. Zelensky and those who support him do not take into account either the consequences or international opinion, essentially rejecting the very concept and principles of nuclear and physical nuclear safety, which they sacrifice to their ambitions and harmful, destructive policies," Zakharova said in a statement.
The attack, which could have resulted in a loss of life, "demonstrates the complete disregard of the Ukrainian authorities for generally accepted norms of humanitarian law and any agreements reached, as well as a blatant disrespect for the immunity of employees of international organizations," the diplomat specified.
"We note that Kiev's actions constitute an obvious provocation before the extraordinary session of the IAEA Board of Governors convened on its initiative on December 12. We call on the United States, the United Kingdom and their allies to stop any support for the Zelensky regime and take measures to bring to justice those responsible for organizing and carrying out this provocation," the statement read.
