Sarcophage over Chernobyl nuclear plant |
Russian troops are capturing Chernobyl nuclear plant. And that is causing a risk of nuclear disaster. The radiation level in that area is increased because of the traffic of military vehicles. And that thing causes risks that the people get radioactive material in their lungs. Another risk is that there will be some kind of damage in the protective buildings of the nuclear plant.
In the summertime that radioactive material is extremely dangerous. Because of radioactive dust, that rises from the ground. That dust causes lung cancer and other symptoms. There was a nuclear accident at Chernobyl in 1986. And still, the area is highly radioactive. Or it's the area where people cannot stay without protective suits or iodine tablets. Without those tablets, there is the risk that radioactive iodine will be stored in the thyroid gland. And that thing causes cancer.
But as you might know nuclear material causes always a risk and that is somebody might want to steal that material for so-called "dirty bomb". The radioactive isotopes are extremely poisonous. And if some soldiers are taking "souvenirs" from that area. There is the possibility that the radioactive poison will get to areas that are not prepared. In the conflict is a very big risk that the radioactive material will get in the wrong hands.
The radiation level in that area is lower than it was just after the accident. But that doesn't mean that the area is safe. Nuclear waste is still in that area. And there is a possibility that radioactive dust will get in the soldier's equipment. That thing can cause cancer and death. The radioactive material is ever fully secured. That means that if there is some kind of fight near the powerplant the ammunition can hit security buildings. And that can release radioactive poison to the area.
