Almost three years after Russia invaded Ukraine, fears of a nuclear accident have increased. Europe’s largest power plant is located in Zaporozhia and is under constant attack from Russian forces. Some companies also offer kits in Italy for 1200 euros: an emergency suit with a mask to protect the respiratory tract, bottles with decontamination agents and a blister of 30 iodine tablets.
Health authorities do not recommend do-it-yourself procedures. But in the meantime, some parts of the North are preparing to face a possible emergency. 30 warehouses containing first aid materials are already ready. Useful in the event of continental scale contamination after a nuclear accident. A possibility that has so far been considered much more likely than an attack with atomic weapons. The biggest risk comes from Ukraine, which is targeted daily by missiles and drones from Vladimir Putin’s armed forces (pictured is the Ukrainian power plant Ivan Compasso in Youzhnoukrainsk). Here’s what Laura Carrer uncovered in her research for Dossier.
