Description: At 1:24 local time on April 26, 1986, a serious leakage and explosion occurred at the No. 4 reactor of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant in the Republic of Ukraine of the Soviet Union. About 1650 square kilometers of land was radiated. Subsequent explosions triggered fires and emitted large amounts of highly radioactive material into the atmosphere, covering a large area. The radiation dose released by the disaster is more than 400 times that of the Hiroshima atomic bomb. The accident resulted in 32 deaths on the spot, and tens of thousands of people died or seriously ill due to the long-term effects of radioactive materials. Up to now, there are still malformed fetuses born due to the effects of radiation. A total of 31 firefighters were killed, thousands of people were exposed to strong nuclear radiation, and tens of thousands of people were evacuated. Conservatively, it is estimated that the former Soviet Union spent a total of 18 billion US dollars, as well as 500000 soldiers and civilians to deal with the incident. In addition to the first batch of firefighters who entered and died within 72 hours, countless Soviet troops participated in the follow-up treatment of the accident. The strong nuclear radiation made it difficult to guarantee the simple protection measures even 60 seconds of protection. Even the pilots who were flying helicopters in the air had to put lead plates under their buttocks to prevent DD from being radiated. All of them directly entered after the accident Those who continued to be treated were all injured by radiation for life. Looking back at the rescuer, we can see that there are no common factors such as the five pointed star, sickle and hammer head of the Soviet medal. Instead, there is a red cross and a softened sword as the bottom. The blue background in the middle represents three rays of radiation (deflection familiar to science students) passing through the blood drops representing life. The black ribbon is more solemn and makes people feel the extremely powerful light of life. Author: Kada_ Wolff
