The Chernobyl nuclear disaster, which occurred in April 1986, resulted in immediate deaths of two plant workers on the night of the explosion and 28 emergency responders died from acute radiation sickness shortly afterward. Estimates of long-term cancer-related deaths among those exposed vary widely, with the World Health Organization suggesting that up to 4,000 people may eventually die from radiation exposure related to the accident among the higher-exposed groups. Overall, the total number of deaths attributed to the disaster remains uncertain and is subject to ongoing research and debate.
