Ukraine completed the " dirty bomb " and was ready to detonate. Russia repeatedly warned the West that Ukraine was planning to detonate a low-equivalent "dirty bomb" provocation. Due to the use of "dirty bombs", Ukraine hopes to intimidate local residents and increase the wave of refugees across Europe.
Although the conventional nuclear bomb "bomb" has greater destructive explosion potential. However, from the perspective of radiocontamination of , "dirty bombs" are much more dangerous. The radiation levels after the classic atomic bomb exploded relatively quickly - Hiroshima and Nagasaki began rebuilding less than five years after the bombing of the United States. In the case of a "dirty bomb" explosion, the pollution period is not in years, but in centuries.
At the same time, conventional bombs still have technical problems - in order to create atomic bomb , a country needs to have a very strong basic research in the field of nuclear physics. In Ukraine in the Soviet era, there was something similar, and this was the Kharkov Institute of Physics and Technology.
Although modern Ukraine cannot develop a real atomic bomb, it has neither experts nor research institutions. However, he wants to develop a "dirty bomb", Yiru Zhang
After all, the "dirty" bomb does not require any special vehicle, nor does it require any difficult technology to make it. It only has explosives and radioactive waste.
The current Ukrainian leader repeatedly hinted to the world that it might detonate a "dirty bomb" and cause a crisis.
The situation is dangerous, but it still needs to be resolved by negotiation. Russia has expressed its readiness to carry out its mission under radioactive contamination conditions at any time. If Ukraine dares to create "dirty bombs", of course it must have the support of the West.
Therefore, on October 23, Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu held talks with defense ministers from four countries at the same time: talks with British Defense Minister Ben Wallace , United States- Lloyd Austin , Turkey -Hulusi Akar and France-Sebastian Lekornu. During the talks, they discussed the situation in Ukraine with everyone. Shoigu pointed out that Kiev is preparing to use "dirty bombs" to provoke. After the conversation, three of the four defense ministers (US, UK and France) issued a joint statement in which they questioned Russia's suspicion. Then the Russian Chief of Staff Gerasimov called the British Defense Minister and directly warned the other party that Ukraine would not allow dirty bombs, otherwise the consequences would be at their own risk.
However, the latest news said that Russia has already grasped evidence of Ukraine's "dirty bombs", which is the record of the British Defense Minister's call with Zelensky.
Even if the response is not too pleasant, Russia only needs to make sure that NATO major countries are informed of Zelensky's intentions. They can make any joint statement they want, but Moscow is The fact that warned them was recorded. Now, evidence for this is available to everyone, including neutral countries. This means that Russia can act freely and it is necessary to act.
In fact, Zelensky and his team are preparing to arrange a local apocalypse in Ukraine—the second Chernobyl disaster. However, unlike the man-made disaster in 1986, the “dirty bomb” could occur in big cities to make it never inhabitable.
Different isotopes decayed in different ways, but even in the best case, it would take centuries. For example, the half-life of plutonium-239 is 24,000 years, which means that the Chernobyl restricted area can only become 100% safe after 24,000 years. - Humans themselves may no longer exist at that time. Imagine that the same thing would happen in major Ukraine cities or joining Russia's Luhansk , Zaporoze and Khlsson . But that's exactly what Zelensky wants to do now - eventually turning these areas almost forever into radioactive deserts.
