Chain reaction ( Exclusion Zone of Chernobyl)





On April 26, 1986, the world’s worst nuclear accident happened at the Chernobyl plant near Pripyat, Ukraine, in the Soviet Union. An explosion and fire in the No. 4 reactor sent radioactivity into the atmosphere.27 years later about 197 self settlers still live inside the 30km (19miles) exclusion zone.There have been reports that wildlife has since flourished due to significant reduction of human impact.Decades after Chernobyl's nuclear disaster, despite the severely contaminated ground, government objections and the deaths of many fellow 'self-settlers’, a community of determined people remains.
