Anniversary of the Chornobyl tragedy.

The anniversary of a common tragedy.

This is a terrible date in our history, the day when the accident at the Chornobyl nuclear power plant occurred in 1986. It was a man-made, environmental and humanitarian disaster that had and still has terrible consequences.

Ukraine has paid an extremely high price for the liquidation of the consequences of the disaster.

We will always remember the feat, courage and heroism of the liquidators of the Chornobyl accident. All those who saved Ukraine and the world at the cost of their own lives!
