The IAEA team has arrived in Zaporizhia, and will continue it to the Zaporizhia NPP. They have to deal with the situation and establish permanent representation there. The mission is led by the Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency, Rafael Grossi. They will spend several days at the nuclear plant occupied by the Russians, meet with the staff, perform inspections and report on the results of the trip. The IAEA crosses the frontline for the first time, entering the occupied territory. The Russians have made the mission difficult from the very beginning.
