We mark the 35th anniversary of the Chornobyl accident, one of the world's most tragic man-made environmental and humanitarian catastrophes on April 26. On that day, the lives of millions of Ukrainians were divided into "before and after Chornobyl".
However, the consequences of a devastating radiation cloud could be inevitable for the continued existence of all mankind. The strength of spirit and courage of Ukrainian firefighters and liquidators stood in the way. Thousands of liquidators, partly at the cost of their own lives, protected and preserved not only their homeland but the entire world.
We always remember this victory, we honor the Chornobyl liquidators!
