Strikes in Ukraine and Russia Result in 16 Deaths on Chernobyl Anniversary
On the 40th anniversary of the Chernobyl nuclear disaster, strikes across Ukraine, Russia, and Russian-occupied territories resulted in at least 16 deaths. The attacks included Russian drone and missile strikes on the city of Dnipro, which killed nine people, and a Ukrainian drone strike on Sevastopol in Russian-occupied Crimea, resulting in one death. Additionally, Ukrainian forces targeted an oil refinery in Yaroslavl, Russia, causing fires at the facility. The strikes have raised concerns about nuclear safety, especially after a Russian drone attack last year on a Chernobyl containment building required emergency repairs. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky warned that Russian attacks risk repeating history, emphasizing the potential for a man-made disaster.
