Are the prisoners Russian?
DingleberrySunrise
If that thing is blown up it will irradiate half the continent. I sincerely don't think it's in Russias interest to do that.

This is why I like Imgur honestly. People just reblogging stuff removed from 'actual news' sites by just people reposting so people are>
djangojazz
aware AS IT HAPPENS. Remember this can get removed too and Russia's bot, misinformation, and tech savy warfare is very advanced.

Correct me if I'm wrong, I thought the point is it's a strategic placement for infinity to move into Kiev?

#2 Just for the record, the name on the account is Voldomir Zelensky, the president of Ukraine, if you can't read the Cyrillic.

The nuclear waste is not the only one disturbed by all this.
goforthandconquer
thank you for clarifying
GlowstickJedi
That's a pretty damn important correction.
memeseeks
You're doing your part.
InTangier
It's good that we see outside our bubble, how horrifying war is. How we should avoid this. And I hope Russian folks see these images too.
TheDingleberryDude
Chernobyl is still an active power plant. If Russian forces can take it, they can shut off electricity to a good portion of Ukraine.
TheDingleberryDude
I stand corrected, the plant is not actively producing power and is being decommissioned.
DisgustedRepublican
So Putin sent a bunch of 18 year old kid soldiers into a toxic radioactive area. Citizens of Russia, these are your children!
Nikolai5
Its illegal to protest this in Russia. Many are, and they are going to be arrested for it. Putin doesn't care.

Thanks for the disclaimers. I'd rather be able to see and judge for myself. Especially when invading nation states, the first thing to do is
bluerazzgummy
No you wouldnt. Because our ability to judge properly from a world away is diminished. People hate on journos but they fact check this stuff
semperfi891
Take out power, communications capabilities

Russian fascists finally encountering the real resistance - babushkas!
overunderwhelmed
Wait wait…what does babushka mean? My basketball coach in middle school used it to refer to pushing people out of the way with your butt
HaikuSorrow
Babushka is Russian for "Grandmother"
overunderwhelmed
Guess his grandma must’ve had an ass like a battering ram
smoothanubis
What do they think will happen once they “control” Ukraine? That the Ukrainians just stay quiet? They may well create a second Chechnya.
copingcabana
Why would anyone want to take Chernobyl? It seems like something not remotely worth the effort.
zHurk777
Perhaps to use as a radioactive hostage in some way.
GodEmperorOfImgur
Two reasons. 1) The good reason. In case of war, you want to secure the NSC area, to make sure it stays intact. 2) The bad reason. Due 1/2
GodEmperorOfImgur
background radiation... it's an excellent place to hide nuclear weapons. (chemical too for that matter). 2/2
DietCokeIsTheBest
Baffled how Russian soldiers live with themselves. They must know they’re the bad guys
zHurk777
Many russians long for the old soviet days & putin is delivering that for them. What's more for them is that store shelves aren't empty.
StuckInBetweeen
How do you think American soldiers live with theirselves? Those who aren't years in Afghanistan and Iraq? Propaganda and nationalism
AsABiologistWhoIsNotFunAtParties
Probably part of why 20+ veterans commit suicide ever day.
thesmelge
Because they've been fed propaganda. They only get state controlled media. They probably do think they're going in to fight Nazis. 1/
thesmelge
All those lies that Russia have been spouting, they've been exposed to but don't have access to other media to cross-check. 2/2
InTangier
This. Russia has been saying for years that Ukraine is basically just nazis. Just don't notice how little votes they actually got, and how >
InTangier
Zelensky's election victory showed a significant blow to the far-right. Russian soldiers just have no idea what is really going on, sadly.
carcarodon
Can anybody translate what is said?
voidmain
I too would like to know what the woman said

“You should carry sunflower seeds in your pockets, so they sprout from your blood.”

Winds are blowing directly to Belarus and Russia. It would be dumb for them to expose the reactor. Emissions are not -86 level anymore.
fartharder
The sarcophagus and the containment structure around it aren't a "waste facility" tho.
fartharder
There is a waste facility nearby, however.
Btch128
You think Putin cares about his people?
backrideup9
I'd bet that Putin was like, 'so what? The winds will change eventually. Blow it up.'
BarryTheCyborg
I could see them turning it into a doomsday weapon though. Giant conventional bomb right under the elephants foot for maximum fallout
n0n53n53
so are you saying these reports are fake?
TargetedAdBot
No
ThatOtherGirlYouKnow
Putin, poisoning Russians? Noooo... how completely unprecedented. [/help I've fallen into a sar-chasm]
AWeeStabInTheDarkSide
Tsar-chasm?
ThatOtherGirlYouKnow
Now there is a pun I didn't see anybody putin online today.
djangojazz
I remember saying something here and on YouTube and getting commenting that was Pro Russian and you looked them up and it was just them>
djangojazz
saying verbatim the same exact thing over and over and over on other threads on how smart Putin was and that facts don't care about your>
djangojazz
feelings. Which really let's be honest. Is moronic because bullying others doesn't require intelligence, and anyone that thinks it does>
djangojazz
is a moron and just wanting to gleam onto the winning side and an asshole.
