The cleanup of the Chernobyl accident involved a large number of workers known as "liquidators," who were primarily military personnel, firefighters, and volunteers. They engaged in immediate response efforts, including firefighting and radiation containment, and later in the construction of the sarcophagus to encase the reactor. Thousands of individuals contributed to the long-term decontamination and management of the exclusion zone, many of whom faced significant health risks due to radiation exposure. The Soviet government organized these efforts, but the full extent of the cleanup's impact on human health and the environment is still a subject of study and concern.
