Bombed Chornobyl shelter no longer blocks radiation and needs major repair – IAEA

Horrifying.

Much less horrifying is the presumably AI written text in the article that I nearly had an aneurism reading:

The 1986 Chornobyl explosion – which happened when Ukraine was under Moscow’s rule as part of the Soviet Union – sent radiation across Europe. In the scramble to contain the meltdown, the Soviets built over the reactor a concrete “sarcophagus” with only a 30-year lifespan. The new confinement was built to contain radiation during the decades-long final removal of the sarcophagus, ruined reactor building underneath it and the melted-down nuclear fuel itself.
