According to the Director General of the IAEA, Rafael Grossi, Ukraine received the equipment donated by Sweden on September 28, and the aid, which the agency purchased with the support of France and the United States, will arrive in the coming days.
“As a result of the latest deliveries, five entities in the country – including the State Nuclear Regulatory Inspectorate of Ukraine and national nuclear operator Energoatom – will receive radiation monitoring equipment, mobile phones, portable power systems and other items they have requested.”
It should be noted that this is the third batch of equipment that Ukraine receives from the IAEA.
“Earlier this month, a second major assistance shipment arrived in the country, including radiation monitoring and personal protective equipment provided by Hungary, Romania and Spain. It followed an earlier shipment to Ukraine in July of equipment provided by Australia and procured with French support.”
