The International Atomic Energy Agency and the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development have signed a memorandum of understanding to broaden their collaboration in the nuclear energy sector.

The International Atomic Energy Agency has reported that "a small water leakage was detected from an impulse line - essentially a small pipe - connected to" Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant's first unit’s primary circuit, with repairs taking place and no "immediate issue for nuclear safety".

Small modular reactors are "one of the most promising, exciting and necessary technological developments" in recent times and are now becoming a reality, International Atomic Energy Agency Director General Rafael Mariano Grossi said at the agency's first international conference on SMRs.

An International Atomic Energy Agency team of experts has completed a review of long-term operational safety for Oskarshamn nuclear power plant's unit 3 in southern Sweden.

The International Atomic Energy Agency's internal radiation safety regulatory framework has been the subject of an Integrated Regulatory Review Service mission.

"Any targeting of employees of nuclear power plants would constitute a blatant violation of this pillar fundamental for overall nuclear safety and security,” International Atomic Energy Agency Director General Raphael Mariano Grossi has said.

El Salvador, which is embarking on a nuclear energy programme, has signed a memorandum of understanding with Argentina's National Atomic Energy Commission.

President Alexander Lukashenko told International Atomic Energy Agency Director General Rafael Mariano Grossi that Belarus would not "in our worst nightmare" seize Chernobyl and then be answerable for it.

The National Atomic Energy Commission (CNEA) of Argentina says the country is aiming to contribute its experience and facilities to collaborate with countries interested in adopting nuclear technologies for peaceful purposes.
