The UN said they could help the International Atomic Energy Agency's visit to Zaporizhzhia from Kyiv earlier.
However, russia insists that any mission that will pass through Ukraine is too dangerous. On August 18, it became known that the Director General of the IAEA would personally lead the mission to the Zaporizhzhia NPP.
