This was at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant, which is near Chernobyl, in the Ukraine. The actual town of the site is Pripyat. The disaster happened on April 26, 1986 as a result of a combination of design flaws and human error. A series of explosions sent radioactive material into the air, causing extensive environmental damage. Many thousands of people had to be evacuated, some for years, and it is estimated that several thousand lost their lives to the resulting health problems. The cost of cleanup and economic loss has been estimated to have had a cost as high as a trillion 1995 US dollars. Belarus and the Ukraine are still cleaning up, and the cost to Belarus has been as high as 20% of its economy. The area affected to some degree included most of Northern and Central Europe.
