Iran's President Ebrahim Raisi addresses the 77th Session of the United Nations General Assembly at U.N. Headquarters in New York City, U.S., September 21, 2022.

International nuclear inspectors visited Ukraine's Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant on Thursday. The UN-linked agency says its staff are at risk from heightened military activity but will continue with their mission. The Zaporizhzhia plant, which is Europe's largest nuclear power plant, has been under Russian control since March, though Ukrainian civilians are still staffing the facility. Rogov claimed that Ukrainian shelling had killed at least three civilians and injured five people, including a child.
