Radioactivity

Fallout -radioactive material from a nuclear explosion- exists in every corner of the world

Radiation was detected about 2.5 kilometres from residential buildings in the city of Khabarovsk, without residents having been exposed

A pioneering study conducted by cardiologists and radiation oncologists at the Washington University School of Medicine in St Louis unveils the potential use of radiation therapy, traditionally employed against cancer, to address ventricular tachycardia in patients suffering from a fatal irregular heart rhythm.

This was stated by the Secretary of the Security Council of Russia Nikolai Patrushev at a meeting in the city of Syktyvkar in Russia.
He also said that an increase in radiation has already been recorded in Poland.
He also drew attention to the fact that US President Joseph Biden arrived in Hiroshima yesterday for the G7 summit.

The evacuations were said to affect Energodar, a town near Ukraine's largest power plant, and the UN nuclear watchdog warned of a possible "severe nuclear accident".
Ivan Fedorov, the Ukrainian mayor of Melitopol, a city located in the Zaporizhzhia region, said the order had caused chaos and five-hour lines of cars at the Crimean checkpoint.

As reported by the media, on Saturday at the border crossing between Serbia and Croatia, in the area of the town of Sombor, a dangerous level of radiation was detected in a passenger vehicle.
According to the media, the presence of radioactive materials was "reported" by sensors installed at the border crossing.

A mining corporation on Sunday apologized for losing a highly radioactive capsule over a 1,400-kilometer stretch of Western Australia, as authorities combed parts of the road looking for the tiny but dangerous substance.

Ljubljana/Moscow, 26 October – The Slovenian government has responded to a Russian Foreign Ministry tweet featuring a photo from Slovenia alongside a warning that Ukraine was preparing to use a so called dirty bomb by stressing that radioactive waste in Slovenia is stored safely, is under supervision and is not used for dirty bombs.

Ukraine's nuclear energy operator said Tuesday that Russian forces were performing secret work at Europe's largest nuclear power plant, activity that could shed light on Russia's claims that the Ukrainian military is preparing a "provocation" involving a radioactive device.

The power plant is located in southeastern Ukraine, that has been occupied by Russian forces, stating that the nuclear plant is "completely out of control", reports Sky News.
The situation there is becoming more dangerous every day, he said, calling on Russia and Ukraine to allow experts to visit the complex to prevent a nuclear accident.
