The Chernobyl disaster involved a series of explosions, with the most significant being two main explosions that occurred on April 26, 1986, in Reactor No. 4 of the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant. The first explosion was a steam explosion caused by a sudden power surge, followed by a second, more powerful explosion due to the release of hydrogen gas. These explosions resulted in the catastrophic release of radioactive materials into the environment.
One: Chernobyl.
Very unlikely. Also neither were nuclear explosions:Chernobyl was a massive steam explosion in the cooling system, and Japan was a combination of steam explosions and maybe hydrogen/oxygen explosions. The nuclear releases in both cases were due to breaches of the containment by these explosions. If they had been nuclear explosions many miles from the plants would have been leveled and that did not happen.
Chernobyl has three syllables: cher-no-byl
Because of the disaster at the nuclear power plant in Chernobyl, not many people live there. Chernobyl, Ukraine has a population of 500.

The United States had an incident in the Three Mile Island and Ukraine had one in Chernobyl but the results were not compared as the results reached on Japan in world war two.
The Chernobyl accident occurred on April 26, 1986, during a late-night safety test at Reactor No. 4 of the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in Ukraine. Operators attempted to conduct a test simulating a power outage, but due to design flaws in the RBMK reactor and violations of safety protocols, an unexpected power surge led to a series of explosions. These explosions resulted in the release of large amounts of radioactive material into the atmosphere, causing widespread contamination and health issues. The accident highlighted critical deficiencies in reactor design and operational safety within the Soviet nuclear industry.
336,000 people
One reactor at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant melted down in the 1986 disaster.
The Chernobyl disaster released radioactive materials equivalent to about 100 megaelectronvolts (MeV) of energy.
Maybe by a volcanic explosions, because many scientists says the earth came from a giant volcanic explosions
The population of Chernobyl - city - is 500.
