Today marks 35 years since the devastating accident at Reactor Number Four of the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant, and solemn ceremonies were held at several locations in Ukraine to commemorate those lost.
Family and friends of those victims boil it down to a simple message. "We don't have the right to forget heroes like the firefighters, servicemen of the armed forces, internal forces, security services, coal miners from the Donbas, militia workers, Kiev subway builders, medics," said Col. Ivan Kovalchuk, who was involved in the cleanup. "They passed though all circles of nuclear hell to save lives for future generations."More Related News
