Russian Drone Strike on Chernobyl Does Not Increase Radiation Levels

Damage to Reactor No. 4 Remains Unrepaired

Recent measurements confirm that the radiation levels around the Chernobyl nuclear plant have not risen despite the Russian drone attack that struck the site earlier this year.

In February, an unmanned aerial vehicle managed to breach the outermost protective shield of Reactor No. 4, creating a puncture that authorities have yet to fully mend. Although the breach caused concern among specialists, continuous monitoring shows that the contamination levels remain within the expected range for the exclusion zone.

Officials say that repairing the damaged shielding is a complex task that requires specialized equipment and careful planning. Until the restoration work is completed, the site will continue to be closely observed to ensure that no hidden leaks develop.
