International Atomic Energy Agency chief Rafael Grossi has postponed a trip to the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant planned for Wednesday due to possible risks caused by Russia's bombing of the Kakhovka hydroelectric power station.
This was reported by The Guardian.
According to a senior Ukrainian government official cited by the publication, the trip has been postponed "until it becomes safer to travel". He said the visit will be postponed for "several hours".
"He is waiting to be able to travel safely", the senior Ukrainian official said. But he did not say when Grossi would arrive at ZNPP.
However, according to The Guardian, Grossi will visit the station on Thursday.
Grossi was previously expected to arrive at the station on Wednesday after talks with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Tuesday, June 13.
