A total of five power plants will be under permanent surveillance, including Chernobyl. Until now, only the highly sensitive site of Zaporijia, close to the frontline and regularly bombed, housed personnel of the international organization. As of now, “around 11 to 12 experts will be present at all times” in Ukraine to “monitor the situation, examine the equipment” or even “provide technical assistance,” the agency said.
