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.

Why is it inaccurate to say that only 31 people died as a result of the Chernobyl disaster?
Because after the nuclear reactor had a meltdown many people were exposed to radiation giving them cancer, and various other problems due to radiation exposure which would kill them. and not only does it effect the people that were exposed to it at that moment but radiation mutates your genes which are passed down to your kids causing many complications in newborn children.
