The two countries are blaming each other for the strikes.
A Russian official said a missile had turned 180 degrees before landing.
He wanted to show that the missile came from the Ukrainians.
According to reports, a Russian envoy tried to convince the nuclear inspectors that the missile that landed near the power plant was not from Russia.
The man in the video is speaking to the inspectors at the Zaporizhzhia plant.
According to a translation by The Telegraph, he gestured to the missile and it fled from here. It changed it's mind. It landed and moved around. The city is located in the south of the country.
He gestured at the missile and turned his hands to show a 180 degree rotation.
There is a video from Mac William Bishop.

The man in the video was identified as a Russian nuclear expert by Bishop and The Telegraph. Karchaa is an adviser to a Russian nuclear company. Insider wasn't able to verify his identity.
Tass said that Karchaa escorted the IAEA delegation on the Zaporizhzhia visit.
On Friday, the Ukrainian Energy Minister said that Karchaa was acting as a tour guide and giving misinformation to the IAEA, but he didn't say what Karchaa said. The sanctions were announced against Karchaa.
The Telegraph said the exchange about the missile was an attempt to convince them it had not been fired from Russian territory.
The IAEA did not reply immediately.
The head of the International Atomic Energy Agency said he and his colleagues were visiting Zaporizhzhia to prevent a nuclear accident. Russia took control of the plant in March.
The visit was delayed due to shelling.
Russia and Ukraine are blaming each other.
The plant's protected status was accused of being used as a shield by Western intelligence.
It was obvious that the plant and physical integrity of the plant had been violated several times, according to Grossi.
