THE head of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) on Sunday condemned a drone strike in the Chernobyl exclusion zone, warning that such attacks are “playing with fire” and must never occur.

The IAEA said on social media platform X that it had received information from Ukraine regarding a drone attack on Sunday morning targeting the Central Spent Fuel Storage Facility located within the Chernobyl exclusion zone. According to IAEA experts on site, radiation levels at the facility remained within normal limits.
