The Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant is now under Russian command and the International Atomic Energy Agency said it is concerned. In a statement on Sunday, the IAEA said that Ukraine needs to get approval from a Russian commander before they can do any management of the plant, including technical operations of its six reactor units. “The Director General expressed grave concern about this development,” the statement said, adding that it’s going against one of the pillars of nuclear safety. On Sunday, former US Under Secretary of Defense Michèle Flournoy told CNN’s Jake Tapper that Russia was “extremely irresponsible” for shelling the Zaporizhzhia plant.
