Human suffering is not enough. Russia adds an environmental disaster on top.

They bombed an oil depot in the town of Vasylkiv not far from Kyiv

#StopRussianAggression
Explosion in Kharkiv. Gas pipeline damaged.
Ah wait, I already have two tweets about Russia’s war crimes damaging the environment.

On top of occupation of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant of course.

So this now becomes a thread.

Stay tuned and #SupportUkraine #StopRussianAggression to make sure the thread stops here.
Unfortunately, I have to continue the thread.

Russian shells hit a radioactive waste disposal & management site (radon.net.ua) in Kyiv. Automated radiation monitoring system broke. Preliminary assessment: no danger outside of sanitary protection zone. To be verified.
Seems that the explosion did not influence normal operation of the gas transit system @GasTSOua
Ukrainian government @Kabmin_UA_e drafts a lawsuit against Russia at UN Court of Justice @CIJ_ICJ for full compensation for damage to environment.

The unprecedented environmental damage from oil depot fire in Vasylkiv district is estimated at USD 27 bln.

This is the city where I was born. Right now.
The explosions lasted for about 30 mins and according to locals were the most powerful ones so far during these three days. Now the city is silent again.
Don't know if you've realised this yet but one more thing Ukrainians are great at is joking. Even when their own house is burning.

There are international scientists/nuclear experts who start theorising and saying that the danger of negative consequences from a strike at Chernobyl confinement is low.

I asked a Chernobyl power plant worker if this is true. Here is his response 👇 Image
