Chernobyl
Chernobyl refers to the site of one of the worst nuclear disasters in history, which occurred on April 26, 1986, when reactor number four at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant, located near the abandoned city of Pripyat in Ukraine, exploded due to a flawed reactor design and operational mistakes. This catastrophic event released a significant amount of radioactive particles into the atmosphere, affecting large areas of Europe, particularly Ukraine, Belarus, and Russia. The disaster led to the immediate evacuation of over 100,000 residents from Pripyat, transforming the once-thriving city into a ghost town. The long-term health and environmental impacts of the disaster have been profound, with thousands suffering from radiation-related illnesses and vast areas remaining contaminated.
