The most famous Nuclear disaster in Europe was the 1986 Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant Disaster in Ukraine. Nuclear radiation from an explosion in one of the four reactors leaked into the surrounding area and the near by city of Pripyat. Over 50,000 people had to be evacuated. 50 workers and firemen were killed and thousands of others died of cancers related with being exposed to the radiation from the disaster. Chernobyl and Pripyat are still heavily radioactive today and can still cause nuclear mutations if exposed for to long.

What is chernobyl incident?
The Chernobyl Incident, also known as the Chernobyl Disaster, was the result of an unauthorized test at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant. Employees conducted a test in which the fission process went out of control and caused a massive explosion. Due to the fact that there was nothing to keep the radiation contained, the reactor was destroyed instantly killing 4 people . As a result, the neighboring town of Prypiat was evacuated immediately. It has been abandoned ever since. Today, Prypiat still holds a high concentration of radiation and has not been maintained for over 20 years. As a result, buildings have now fallen into disrepair and Prypiat has become a ghost town.
