You are probably thinking of Chernobyl. This is actually in the Ukraine, but at the time of the disaster there it was part of the Soviet Union. I'm not aware of any severe accidents in Russia as it is now. However accidents like Chernobyl have international repercussions because the fallout can be carried across national boundaries by the weather. In that case, with the Soviet government's secrecy policy, the fact it had happened only became known by picking up traces in countries like Sweden. The fallout covered Scandinavia and as far as the UK, we had a long period when sheep grazing in Scotland and the north of England were contaminated.
One of the sources of the nuclear threat in the Russian Domain is the large nuclear arsenal maintained by Russia, including intercontinental ballistic missiles and other delivery systems. The potential for nuclear proliferation and the risk of accidents or unauthorized use also contribute to the nuclear threat in the region.
The ultimate result is the pollution of the environment. Any nuclear accidents leave the area unusable for centuries. When the nuclear reactor melted down in Russia in the 80's it left the entire area radioactive. People can no longer live there and any plants and animals are affected by the radiation that still exists.
The Obninsk Power Plant, which is located in Obninsk, Russia. It was first built in 1954.
Some countries with nuclear power plants include the United States, France, China, Russia, Japan, and South Korea. These countries rely on nuclear energy for electricity generation.
As of now, Russia possesses the largest nuclear bomb in the world known as the Tsar Bomba. It was tested in 1961 and had a yield of 50 megatons, making it the most powerful nuclear bomb ever detonated.
