Chernobyl
Chernobyl
is a accident that happened on April 26, 1986 in which a powerful catastrophic
explosion destroyed the 4th power block of the nuclear power plant at the Chernobyl
Nuclear Power Plant Industry in Chernobyl, Ukraine. This accident became the
most terrible nuclear accident in the world. The
explosion released a lot of radioactive particles and gases in the air which spreaded over western Europe. The result of the explosion
caused 31 people to die and many others poisoned because of the amount of
radiation being exposed. A lot of people were evacuated in nearby towns like
Chernobyl.
