Assessment result on the condition of the shelter at the Chornobyl Nuclear Power Plant (ChNPP) is due in May

The first results of an assessment on the condition of the shelter at the
Chornobyl Nuclear Power Plant (ChNPP), following a Russian drone attack,
will be available in May. In June, Ukraine plans to present proposals for
restoring the New Safe Confinement (NSC or the Arch) at the donor assembly
in London.

As reported by Ukrinform, this was announced by Ukraine’s
Minister of Environmental Protection and Natural Resources, Svitlana
Hrynchuk. “It’s currently hard to say how much the project timeline has
been delayed, because certain works at the site cannot be performed right
now. However, I want to assure everyone that the radiation background has
not changed in any way — even after the attack,” said Hrynchuk.
