Chernobyl's Belarusian FALLOUT zone (8x11)

Date de diffusion: Jan 18, 2021

Chernobyl, most infamously known for the nuclear accident that almost wiped out Europe, occurred in Northern Ukraine and it’s most associated with the nearby town of Pripyat, which was built for power plant workers and their families but evacuated and left as a ghost town due to the radioactive fallout. However, a country that is rarely mentioned when discussing the disaster is the Republic of Belarus north of Ukraine, which today shares an exclusion zone lesser known than the Ukrainian zone, but just as eerie.
