Scott Mc Kiernan Presents zReportage.com Issue #937 Story of the Week: Published TUESDAY, April 30, 2023: ‘Chernobyl: Frozen In Time’ Pictures by ZUMA Press award winning photographer Gabriel Romero: On April 26, 1986, the world’s worst nuclear disaster occurred in reactor No. 4 of the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in the then Ukrainian SSR of the Soviet Union. The fallout and subsequent meltdown released radioactive contamination across Ukraine, Russia and Europe. Officially, 31 people died directly from the disaster, unofficially the long-term effects of radiation poisoning have led to the deaths of thousands. Over the course of the last 38 years, nature has begun to reclaim that which was built by man. The legacy of Chernobyl is a lesson to the world on the responsibility of nuclear power. Welcome to ‘Chernobyl: Frozen In Time’ .
