IAEA: 'A new localized ceasefire negotiated by IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi took effect this morning to help prevent a nuclear accident in Ukraine during the military conflict. The eighth such IAEA-brokered temporary truce will enable repairs of equipment in a 330 kilovolt (kV) switchyard, close to the Zaporizhzhya Thermal Power Plant (ZTPP), that has been damaged by military activity. This will in turn strengthen the connection between the nearby Zaporizhzhya Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP) and its sole remaining external power line, the Ferosplavna-1, and reduce the risk of another loss of off-site power'
