On October 31, 2025, the International non-governmental organisation Greenpeace visited the industrial site of the Chornobyl NPP as part of its visit to the Chornobyl Exclusion Zone.

A team of six specialists performed an impact assessment of the effects caused by a russian unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) strike on the New Safe Confinement (NSC) Arch, which took place on 14 February 2025.

Natalia Gozak, director of Greenpeace Ukraine, believes that exposing russia's war crimes, in particular the attack on the NSC, is critical for international pressure and the imposition of new sanctions, and that studying the radiological situation contributes to the long-term safety of the Exclusion zone.

The visit was made possible thanks to close coordination between the State Agency of Ukraine for Exclusion Zone Management, the SSE Chornobyl NPP, the SSE Ecocentre, and Greenpeace. The study results will be made public to the international community.
