Renewed shelling near Ukraine's Zaporizhzhya nuclear power plant in the last 24 hours.
"Powerful explosions shook the area," said the IAEA in a statement.
Grossi said that there is an "urgent need for measures to help prevent a nuclear accident."
The head of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has issued a dire warning about the potential threat of new shelling at Ukraine's Zaporizhzhya Nuclear Power Plant.
There has recently been relative calm near the plant, which was captured by Russian forces early into Putin's invasion of Ukraine, but the area was shaken by more than a dozen explosions caused by shelling over the weekend. "Powerful explosions shook the area," said the IAEA in a sstatement
Ukraine and Russia are blaming each other for the attacks.
Citing information provided by the plant management, the IAEA team said there had been damage to some buildings, systems, and equipment at the ZNPP site, but none so far were critical for nuclear safety and security. There were no reports of casualties.
Director General Rafael Mariano Grossi of the IAEA said: "Whoever is behind this, it must stop immediately. As I have said many times before, you're playing with fire!"
