MELITOPOL, April 1. /TASS/. The Ukrainian military is not shelling Energodar and after the second visit of IAEA (the International Atomic Energy Agency) Director General Rafael Grossi the situation is quiet and calm, Vladimir Rogov, chairman of the We Are Together With Russia civil society group, told TASS.

"The situation has not changed, thank God, quiet and calm," Rogov said in response to a question about the situation in Energodar following Grossi’s visit.

According to him, over the past week the shelling was registered in the vicinities of populated areas of Tokmak, Molchansk, Vesyoly and Melitopol.

"The intensity is medium, the shelling continues," Rogov added.

On Wednesday, Grossi visited the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant (ZNPP) and inspected the surrounding territory. He was shown around facilities that had been damaged in Ukrainian shelling. Grossi held meetings with ZNPP Director General Oleg Romanenko and Yury Chernichuk, First Deputy CEO of the JSC Operating Organization of the Zaporozhye NPP.

This was Grossi’s second visit to the nuclear facility in the past six months. He first visited the Zaporozhye nuke plant on September 1, 2022. Following that visit, the IAEA published a report calling for establishing a safety zone around the power plant to prevent a disaster amid the hostilities. The IAEA never specified from where the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant was being fired at.

The Zaporozhye nuclear plant located in the town of Energodar is the largest in Europe and has a capacity of about 6,000 MW. It used to generate a quarter of all electric power in Ukraine. In March 2022, the Zaporozhye facility was placed under the Russian army’s control.

Since then, the Ukrainian military has been periodically bombarding both Energodar’s residential quarters and the premises of the Zaporozhye nuke plant, employing drones, heavy artillery and multiple launch rocket systems.
