History
The Chernobyl disaster was a nuclear accident that occurred on 26 April 1986 at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic (back then a part of the Soviet Union). It is considered to be the worst nuclear power plant disaster in the history.
On 26 of April, 1986 shortly after 01:23 a.m., reactor number four at the Chernobyl plant, near Pripyat, had a fatal meltdown. Further explosions and fire sent a plume of highly radioactive fallout into the atmosphere and was spread over an extensive geographical area, including the nearby town of Pripyat. Fallout was 400 times bigger than the one that had been emitted by the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The plume drifted over large parts of the Western Soviet Union, Eastern Europe, Western Europe and Northern Europe. Contaminated rain fell as far as Ireland. Large areas in Ukraine, Belarus and Russia had to be evacuated, with over 336,000 people had been resettled. According to official post-Soviet data about 60% of the fallout landed in Belarus.
About 135,00 people were evacuated from the 30-km radius around the plant, with the peripheral areas remaining at a high risk of radioactive exposure. Over the following years about 600,000 people known as "the liquidators" worked on clean-up operations inside the 30-km Zone.
Reactor No 4 is now enclosed in a large concrete shelter which was erected quickly to allow to continue working to other reactors at the plant.
The Chernobyl Zone - as a site of the important historical event, as an ensemble of hundreds unique technical and cultural monuments, as a natural phenomenon - rightfully deserves inclusion into the UNESCO list of the world heritage sites and conversion into the national cultural and natural park.
