the curve of an exit ramp and slammed into wall under the interstate rescue workers pulled a body from the wreckage monday family members tell us it was the truck's driver, nathaniel moody, who was found dead in the rubble he was described as a hard-working family man. the head of the atomic energy agency is in ukraine in direct response to the dam explosion crisis in kherson. he says he will assess the situation at the zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant. and right now we want to bring in foreign correspondent chapman bell who's following this story for us how has the blast at the kau kakhovka dam impacted the area >> reporter: there are new worries to the zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant which has been the cause of concern throughout the war after russian forces year took it. and that involves the water that's essential to cooling the
4:38 am
six nuclear reactors on site as well as the spent fuel stosrage there. they've now within following this dam breach, discrepancies in water levels in the reservoir, in the ponds associated with these cooling methods. now that's why grossi's on his way there. he wants to get wider access for his team that has been on site since a few months into the war so that they can check these discrepancies and make sure that there's not going to be a catastrophe, because if these reactors struggle to cool, that involves a very dangerous situation. now hes hada he also wants to m president zelenskyy and a plan for assistance to help with this ongoing problem there. and that all following this dam burst which has been a real humanitarian and threatens to be an ecological stat there
4:39 am
so far, ten people are dead, at least, as well as dozens missing. but thousands have been displaced. andin addition to the nuclear aspect of the water, there's also threats to the area for drinking water so there's a big concern that this dam blast could potentially continue to cause problems after the initial flooding, not just to the people in the area, but also to this nuclear power plant, which would cause huge problems so i think the big concern is to get there, check things and make sure that everything's okay and have a plan in place to continue this, jessica. >> all right, chapman bell, thanks so much for that report this morning moving on now to former italian prime minister and media tycoon, silvio berlusconi has died at the ageof 86 he was one of the most divisive leaders this post-war italy and
