The International Atomic Energy Agency has expressed serious concerns regarding fuel supply if the loss of external power continues, emphasizing the importance of safe replenishment routes.
Supply and Shipment Status
While experts observed dozens of tons of diesel fuel being transported to the site from various locations near the facility, authorities have made differing statements regarding the replenishment of reserves due to conflicts along access routes.
