International Chernobyl Remembrance Day

Every year on April 26th, International Chernobyl Disaster Remembrance Day commemorates this historic nuclear accident... In addition, the day is also focusing on the prevention of future nuclear disasters.

The deadliest nuclear accident in history took place on April 26th, 1986. In Chernobyl, Ukraine, a horrific event occurred. One of the nuclear reactors at the power plant suffered during a safety inspection. The explosion, which resulted in a fire that lasted for nine days, was a combination of human error and poor planning. In three countries, Ukraine, Russia, and Belarus, the radiation released into the air contaminated 150,000 square miles in 150,000 square miles: Ukraine, Russia, and Belarus. Food sources around Europe were also contaminated by the radioactive cloud.

Human and financial costs are both human and financial, as well as financial

The explosion killed two workers. Two others were killed. Firefighters and emergency responders died within the next three months after being exposed to radiation exposure. According to a UN report, the tragedy has been a potential cause of thyroid cancer in 20,000 children. Over 300,000 residents who lived near the nuclear power plant had to relocate. The crash has resulted in an increase in suicide rates, depression, and post-traumatic stress.

Throughout the years, the total cost of the disaster has increased to $700 billion. The following items are included in the costs of the work::

The amount of damage caused by the fire depended on the severity of the disaster
Sealing the nuclear reactor off the nuclear reactor seals the reactor off
Many people exposed to radiation have health problems, including health care to those exposed to radiation
People who lived nearby are returning to their families who were resettlement
Make contaminated food safe once more by doing research to make contaminated food safe again..
Radioactive garbage collection and disposal of radioactive wastes is both a clean-up and disposal of radioactive waste
The nuclear plant's loss of electricity was a result of the nuclear plant's loss of electricity

Unfortunately, the Soviet government took four years to realize the urgent need for international assistance. In 1990, the United Nations General Assembly adopted a resolution to support the recovery process. The Chernobyl Trust Fund was established by the UN in 1991. The fund's main goal was to accelerate financial contributions to Chernobyl projects, which included financial assistance for victims.
