Were Russian soldiers contaminated by radioactivity?

It is nicknamed the red forest or the contaminated forest. It is one of the most radioactive sites in the world, a no-go zone around the Chernobyl power plant. However, on images of drones, we can distinguish recent traces of activity. Russian soldiers are said to have carried out maneuvers and dug trenches there, unaware of the danger. Accompanied by the Ukrainian authorities, a team of journalists was able to go there after the hasty departure of the Russians at the end of March.

On the ground, they find an abandoned Russian military ration. Next, the radiation level explodes and rises to 50 times more than normal. Further, inside the buildings in the basements, 170 employees were kept prisoners. Upstairs, the radioactivity measuring device panics again. There is no doubt. “They went to the red forest and brought the radioactivity back here with the dust“says a Ukrainian. The troops Russians havebeen irradiated? Moscow did not communicate on this subject. But Ukrainian sources circulated an image of several buses of Russian soldiers outside a radiotherapy center in Belarus from March 30.
