Well, crap. This could make a mess that would affect much of Europe.

Russian troops have pushed into the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone — "one of the most radioactive places on Earth (https://www.nytimes.com/2022/01/22/world/europe/chernobyl-ukraine-invasion-russia.html)" — with shelling reportedly threatening buried nuclear waste storage sites, The Kyiv Independent reports (https://twitter.com/KyivIndependent/status/1496859095126757389?s=20&t=U9xEkC7kbKT3iNg0jNQcSw) based on comments by Anton Herashchenko, an advisor to the Ukrainian Interior Ministry.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky confirmed the breach, tweeting (https://twitter.com/ZelenskyyUa/status/1496862540957114370?s=20&t=jfKRoqB3sSsj0aQWR0jBQA) that "our defenders are giving their lives so that the tragedy of 1986 will not be repeated … This is a declaration of war against the whole of Europe." A radiation safety expert who previously spoke with i (https://inews.co.uk/news/world/ukraine-war-nuclear-risk-russia-missiles-accidental-hits-reactors-1478269?ico=in-line_link) explained that if "sensitive facilities" in Ukraine are hit, "radiation could contaminate air, soil, and waterways, affecting not only Ukraine but also Russia and much of Europe."

Why?

Could it be that Chernobyl is a US biolab? Word on the street is the US has several bio labs in Ukraine that Putin wants destroyed.

I don't know, but I'd guess there's a real opportunity for a crazy leader on the ropes to break the seal and contaminate his enemies? A nuclear attack that could be covered as an accident.

Then again simplest reason was straight shot ti Kiev, which I noted earlier.

It may be that even without breaching the site, soldiers might have been exposed and there may be new airborne radioactivity:

I can't really come up with anything adequate to say about this. Ordering men to probable suicide? Lawful orders must be different there :)

It's sad and unfortunately seems par for the course. While most of us truly and rightfully get exhausted by the continued divisions in our country, the biggest threat is to silence dissent, regardless of which side is winning at any moment in time.
