Apparently, Russian troops were digging defensive trenches in contaminated soil

Several hundred Russian troops have been withdrawn from the Chernobyl nuclear facility in Ukraine after suffering from “acute radiation sickness” and are being treated in Belarus, according to reports.
The Pentagon confirmed earlier that the Russian forces began to pull out from the defunct facility, which was taken on the first day of the invasion, after a pledge by the Kremlin to scale back its offensive.
But an employee at the Public Council at the State Agency of Ukraine for Exclusion Zone management said the soldiers had fled while “irradiated” and bused to a medical facility in Gomel, Belarus, the Mirror reported.
“Another batch of irradiated terrorists who seized the Chernobyl zone was brought to the Belarusian Radiation Medicine Center in Gomel today,” Yaroslav Yemelianenko wrote on Facebook.
“Have you dug trenches in the Red Forest, b—hes? Now live the rest of your short life with this. There are rules for handling this area. They are mandatory because radiation is physics — it works regardless of status or shoulder ranks,” he wrote.

What is the cost of lies?
The Russian mega screw ups just never end.
I thought Chernobyl has been cleaned up decades ago ...
It has never been cleaned up, it has just been contained.
If true, that’s karma. 🤣
I never understood why they took that in the first place.
The whole area around it is contaminated, and will be for centuries.
“I never understood why they took that in the first place.”
Yes, it made absolutely ZERO sense to do that.
Dear God they are mad.
Russia never really was great at war. They just keep throwing bodies at the problem until the other side gets tired of killing them.
But here the Russians are killing themselves by being extra stupid.
They were only planning to be there for a couple of days after which the Ukrainian government would collapse. That was the plan or what counts as planning in the Russian army.
Russians gonna rush in. Nothing a little vodka can’t fix.
Not if the Ukraine was making material to make nuclear weapons with.
Isn’t the exclusion zone a 25 mile diameter?
Or, they were searching for nuclear materials in all he wrong places. The plant has been producing electricity for decades without serious illnesses, so what were the Russians up to? Part of it was functional - the part the Russians were involved in was not.
Nuke them until they glow...
Then shoot them in the dark.
The whole plant was entombed in thousands of tons of concrete. There is no way you can make anything useful from that mess.
Thank Putin..
