MOSCOW — The head of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) says he saw what he “needed to see” at Ukraine’s Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant that has been frequently shelled.

“I think we were able in these few hours to put together a lot, a lot of information. The key things I needed to see I saw, and your explanations were very clear,” Rafael Grossi tells Russian media accompanying the IAEA inspection team at the Moscow-controlled atomic plant.
